Oh I didn't know he was bantam. Cant tell in a pic. I'll get some bantams some day but for now all I have is LF. He is a beautiful bird.

Does anyone know what a buff brahma bantam roo/ white Cochin bantam hen cross would look like? Probably a very interesting color

Bumpercar: thanks.
I was referring to a blue brahma chick on a different thread. To my untrained eye, it looked alot like a blue copper Marans I hatched (especially the leg coloring).
I have also seen lavender brahma hatching eggs for sale.

try watching rare breeds poultry auction, sometimes someone has some of the different colors like the blues, blacks and even the lav. Colombians

Just curious
Who is responsible for developing the laced Brahmas in the US? When I search several names appear: Gary, Dan, Greenfire.

There are several sources, depending on the variety in question. I'm certainly not an expert on the history of the different varieties, maybe one of the "old timers" on the thread can answer your question.

I would love some Lavender ones...where perchance are they selling those?
