Blanche at 4 weeks old. Her black feathering around her neck is coming in more pronounced now. My daughters call it her "necklace". She is just the most friendly girl. She is the first to come to me, and she wants to be picked up and held. She also enjoys pecking my painted toenails, but I keep telling her they aren't treats, but alas, she is persistent. Hehe.
Everywhere my Bramha Maxine has been broody
Omg Bramhas are hard headed broodies
Precious!
My incubator of Brahma eggs is on Day 14 today. I'm down to 15 from 21, after removing 4 quitters last night. At the first candling on Day 7, I removed 2, one of each color variety. All the quitters from Day One until now, except one, have been the Darks. Only one was a Partridge/Blue Partridge. So, I'm left with 9 from the breeders blue Partridge rooster over Partridge hens and 6 from this Dark Brahma pen. That's enough to have a decent breeding group if a dozen or so actually hatch.
Forgive my naivety, but please indulge my curiosity..... I thought Brahmas were only Light, Dark, or Buff. What other varieties exist such as your Partridge?
There are many colors of Brahma, but like speckledhen said, there are only 3 recognized varieties in the US. Other colors are recognized in other countries though. I breed (and sell) 3 colors of Brahma right now & am adding more colors next year. Here are some pics of some of mine....Forgive my naivety, but please indulge my curiosity.....
