What is the smallest size chicken door that a full grown Brahma can go through?

My pop doors are 14 inches square.  My 2 adult hens have no problems going through.  My 14 week old cockerel is now having to duck as he goes in.  I just wonder if he's going to have problems when he's full grown!! ep.gif

Kim and Kendra have bantam buffs and large lights, John Neff has the same. I am not familiar with John and Bev, and not sure what they raise. They are all good breeders. It would be just plain crazy to label one "the best". All are ABC members. Kim is the current president. John Neff has sold eggs in the past, don't know if he still does. Its a little late and a little hot for shipping eggs now, IMO. Kim lives in Michigan, I think he's the closest to you, John N is in Florida.

Join the Brahma Club "IF" you are serious about breeding/exhibiting Brahmas. There is a club points list that shows who wins consistently if that is what you mean by "best".

If any of them offer shipping eggs for a decent price I'll start with Kim and Kendra. I'll probably join the brahma club soon.

Thanks!  I have a feeling I'm going to have to make some changes to the coop we just bought.  Rats!  It looks so pretty the way it is.  Hopefully my husband will be able to fix it.

Another door question... would an adult Brahma hen fit through the automatic "Pullet Shut" door?  The opening is 11" wide by 15" tall.

She will probably have to duck some but it SHOULD work.

Thank you.  I'm hoping all the changes we've made to the coop will suit her.  And I really want to get this door before we go on vacation.  I have never seen a full-grown Brahma in real life, so I have no concept what she's going to look like, or how big she's going to be.  She's already taller than my RIR and EE.  Up until last week, she was the same size.

I have another question. How many of you people would spend $100 to $250 on a show quality light brahma? The owners are John & Bev Tenneson and I would have to have it shipped from Washington state to Ohio. Plus how much would shipping be about? They said they used to show birds but are now done showing and one of their mid priced birds they sold won Reserve Grand Champion Asiatic recently. Also John Neff said he does sell hatching eggs but not until next spring. No clue what the price on the eggs would be. So what I want to know is who would wait until spring and get eggs from John Neff and who would just buy one really expensive cockerel?

There's nice looking Brahmas on Ebay (and the auctions here sometimes, too).
