Ah. I'm going to guess one parent was dark Brahma but the other wasn't. It will be interesting to see how it comes out.Got it from a local breeder. Also got 3 australopres that turned orange within the first few weeks...I figure them to be Wyandottes. She threw the dark brahma in as a gift as I had to bring one buff brahma back to swap after getting it home...it had a wound. The dark brahma is a cool bird however first to do everything and taught all the others how to walk the ramp and get back in at night. If it is a rooster it doesn't have a comb yet but The feathering is what puzzles me after what I've researched.
