They're friendly, just like their larger counterparts, they do go broody, they lay pretty well too.  smile

The latest issue of "Backyard Poultry" magazine has an article on the Brahma breed, and also discusses bantam Brahmas.  Maybe you could find a copy.

Have light brahma bantams.  they are OK.  Lay well, will go broody, enough to eat when you cull the extra roosters.  I don't beleive they are as friendly as other breeds but they aren't wild or skittish.
