    I hope yours are friendly, my hatchery cochin was the meanest bird ever, came at us feet first. I look to see if I can find his picture. He was beautiful and I love his girls but all boys from him were mean. This was before I got into exhibition birds.

    Go to the American brahma club on Facebook that's where most of your great breeders are and many are willing to ship birds. I had to have mine shipped from out of state as there were no breeders in my area.

    The base color comes from the male but leakage (extended black) comes from both. Structure comes from both. Type it is very important to brahmas. Wide, wide, wide. Wide head, wide body, wide tail (inverted U). It will take many years to get the body type you want if the original hens don't...
