Pros: Super, super sweet. Lap chicken of the flock.
Not likely to be taken by hawks, too heavy
I, personally, would not raise them for meat, but they do get very heavy.
Usually quiet, good for people in neighborhoods who can’t have loud birds.
Very cold Hardy.
Cons: Can be aggressive if they miss a meal
Take a long time to mature, making it hard to guess their gender.
I absolutely love my Brahma! “She” (hopefully) is a Buff Brahma named Cupcake. Super sweet, and not loud compared to the others. Although I’ve only had her for 9 weeks. I would highly, highly recommend this breed! To beginners and experienced chicken keepers alike! Here’s a few pictures of my precious girl.
