    Comb to gender theory accuracy?

    I’m hearing that as far as the pea comb goes 3 means a male and one means female has that been accurate for you? Has anyone noticed what they thought was a pullet develop a 3 row pea comb and turn out to be a male or still female? Also with tail feather developing later has then been accurate...

    Brahma leg redness

    Hello all, thank you for having you here. This April will be my one-year mark of becoming a chicken owner, and I have reached my first roadblock that I cannot seem to overcome. I have two buff Brahma among my clean legged birds. Mid January I noticed that one of them had lost considerable amount...

    Light, buff or dark Brahma?

    I’ve never owned brahmas so if this sounds like a dumb question I’m sorry 😂 3 of 4 of my little brahmas (the other was hiding) what do you think buff, light or dark? The 4th is similar to the first a little grayer!

    New Brahma Owner

    We have 1 light and 1 dark Brahma- we live in Colorado and are getting ready to put the flock outside as soon as these 2 finish their molting. I've read that Brahmas need some extra attention bc of all their fluff, especially on their feet. Keeping off mud, snow, ice and poop. Also to be aware...

    Which is bigger - Wyandottes or Barred Rock

    Last year, I picked up 6 chicks - 3 Australorps and 3 Light Brahmas. They were all supposed to be females, but one of the Brahmas ended up a rooster. While I'm thrilled to have him, I hadn't planned for him (by the time we knew he was a rooster, there were no more chicks to be had locally)...

    My 4 week old brahma has had an injured foot since we got her at a few weeks ago, it seems like she can't really move her toes but she's been walking on it pretty normally until a few days ago. Now shes been keeping it curled up and has been walking on her toes and she has a hard swollen purple...

    Male or female?

    Hello fellow chicken lovers. Can I get some thoughts on the gender of these Brahmas? They are supposed to be female but they certainly don't act like it. I've never had this breed before. I got them as chick's from a breeder who assured me they were ladies. But I have seen at least one of...

    Unusual looking Brahma rooster

    I hatched a lot of eggs from my mixed flock of chickens over the summer, one of the chickens I hatched is a dark Brahma rooster. He hatched from a dark Brahma egg and I’m positive he came from the dark Brahma rooster, the only other Roos were a golden laced polish and an old English Wheaton...

    2 week old Dark Brahmas - same age, very different size?

    Hi everyone, first post here! I have some questions about two Brahma chicks. I have acquired my first brooder chicks - two Dark Brahmas. One is considerably smaller than the other. I was told they were both pullets, 2 weeks old and it is definitely too early to tell, but I wanted to post here...
