    I find first eggs can range from normal but small to really strange or malformed. I'd give it a few days, if she doesn't start laying normally you might give her some oyster shell grit to help.

    Just a heads up for any brahma seekers in the UK, we came across this guy selling "his creation" of buff laced Brahmas. His photos are actually Dan Powell's, and his ad is copied off of Dan's webpage. http://m.ebay.co.uk/itm/321837489506 He has other listings using fake photos as well, just want...

    Just took some recent pics of my favourite guys! These are my 8 month old cockerels. This little fellow and his siblings are 3 months old. They are always curious about the camera lol.

    You also need to make sure to turn the eggs at least once a day (my hubby turns ours four times a day lol) until you put them in the incubator. Val

    Backyard Brahmas!!

    Awww, mine love when I give them bits of apple. Hubby says no to the light Brahmas because we have light Sussex and he reckons they look almost the same lol, I'll teach him yet. I definitely want more buff Brahmas as well as some dark Brahmas. I only have one blue partridge but she is glorious...
