Thank you! I'm actually trying to identify my avatar, as that was the mystery chicken from McMurrays. It's different than our Brahmas. I did post on the identify this breed thread, but if you know what it is, please do tell

You're welcome.

I'm not very good at guessing breeds but from the looks of it, that bird looks to be a splash brahma. Again, don't quote me on it.

Welcome to BYC. Glad you decided to join our flock. The first breed I ever had were Light Brahmas (50 years ago), and they were gentle giants. The bird in your avatar looks to me like it has a single comb rather than the pea comb of a Brahma, so I'm thinking it's a Splash Cochin. If you haven't done so already, definitely check out our Learning Center at https://www.backyardchickens.com/atype/1/Learning_Center. There is lots of useful information there. Please feel free to ask any questions you may have. We are here to help in any way we can. Cheers.6
