My light Brahmas. I know their plain in comparison to some of the other colored Brahmas but I like Light Brahmas. Well Brahmas in general. I've had these guys since they were four months old , they are 8 months old now. The hens are laying Juanita and Margarite , The rooster's name is Fernando.. Had a chick hatch yesterday smile  If I'm lucky hubby will let me get more smile

Wimberleytexaschick- what are your plans for the lavender laced pullet? Will she be bred back to silver laced or will you work on lavender laced gold?

Hope to create both.

I am half afraid to ask.... but... do any of my chickens have vulture hocks? I am only planning on hatching for myself and maybe a few friends but I would still like to know.
The are gentle giants... and my daughters favorite to hold!
My Silver Laced Brahma just started laying eggs at almost 30 weeks.

I just found this topic.  Beautiful birds up there!

I have Buff-Laced Brahmas from Dan Powell.  Here are some pics of my flock.

I'm curious about those who have bred Blue Brahmas.  What would I need to do to take these birds in that direction?
I'm a newbie to breeding, so talk baby talk to me, please!  I have the incubation and hatching part down but I don't understand
all the genetic stuff very well. 

Also, could someone please post a picture of a vulture hock?  I have no idea what to look for.  Thanks.

Vulture hock - see the feathers pointing backward off Corkey's "elbow."  Not a good thing.

Well you haven't seen any posts from me in a while as i lost my entire stock when a raccoon broke onto my pen and killed pretty much everything. I am just now starting to hatch and rebuild, hopefully in a year or so ill be able to start a project again. Hope to hear from some of you again.
