    Is a Brahma rooster okay to put with a mixed flock?

    I have two dark brahma hens, one light brahma hen, and a light brahma rooster, all about a year old. I bought them all together a couple weeks ago, but the rooster needs more hens, which now I cannot find any more brahma hens around me. He is making the hens back raw, even with the saddle on...

    I think I have a second Roo..... 😕

    We have a flock of 11. 6 Brahmas and 5 Barred Rock. I specifically ordered one Brahma roo, and the rest hens. But I got a surprise extra Brahma in the order. Along the way we lost a Brahma, which I assume was a pullet. As they have developed, this one is looking more and more like a roo. So...

    Sexing 1 month old buff brahmas

    So I have 14 unsexed buff brahmas and they're about a month old. Any ideas on how to tell their sex? I've tried holding them by their head like a lot of yourube videos have shown, but every single one freaks out and pulls their head in when I do it. I got some pictures below of them taking time...
