    Brabanters and Spitzhaubens--The Differences PIC HEAVY!

    That is a very nice beard! You can feather sex Brabanters in the first few days after hatching. Otherwise, I can tell at about 6 weeks. The saddle feathers and any green sheen in the tails give it away. Also the combs.

    That's a shame. This is a part of the reason they have yet to be accepted into the APA. Breeders have not yet perfected the consistency of the breed. I don't have any problems with leg color but I do not get consistent beards. In fact, my hatches so far have been about half and half bearded and...

    Showmesilkies.com sells REAL Brabanter eggs as does this seller on ebay CLICK HERE FOR LINK. They are expensive because they are the real deal. Be VERY VERY careful when buying "Brabanter" eggs on ebay as there are some sellers on there that are not selling real Brabs. Ideal Hatchery sells...

    Brabanters and Spitzhaubens--The Differences PIC HEAVY!

    Want to share my SUPER FRIENDLY and amazing gold pullet I hatched out March 29, 2015 (almost 14 weeks). Her name is Alex. She flies on my shoulder, or my daughter's head, every time we come into the pen. Proof of how awesome Brabanter's personalities are.

    Brabanters and Spitzhaubens--The Differences PIC HEAVY!

    I'm sorry. I totally should have clarified. I've heard from several people on the American Brabanter's FB page that there are some sellers (one in particular) of BRABANTER eggs that have been 100% infertile. There are only 4 sellers of Brabanter eggs on eBay. They all have pretty good...

    They are certainly not a "popular" breed, however, that might be what makes them so desirable to people. I hatched my first Brabs on March 21st. At two weeks old I decided to sell the ones that came out beardless or with other less desirable traits. I also had half brabanter/ameraucana and...

    I guess it depends on the line of genetics you get. My cream brabs are the gentlest most docile lap chickens I've ever had! My cream roo has never flogged anyone!

    Funny you posted that link...I just found that last night...Though only half, I think it's the best "standard" we have to work from. Here is another description I found online...

    So if there is no Standard of Perfection for brabanters then how do we do this besides based on our own personal preferences and what we read online. As of today, I can't find what their bodies/tail angles are supposed to look like. Is it similar to a Spitzhauben but lower tail?

    How do I find the Standard of Perfection for brabanters? Is it the U.K.'s version? So far, I'm just going by Dutch sites I found online...
