brahma

Hello! New here, but I’ve been reading the forums for better than a year soaking up the years and years of experience. So thank you! Today my question is about the bald spot on the back of one of my standard chickens. I know there can be several causes, so I’ll explain our current circumstances...

I have one Brahma chick that is sexed as a pullet from a hatchery, but accuracy for them seems about 2/10 chicks are roosters. In the case of it turning out a rooster, I’d like to keep it. It’s from cackle hatchery, so I’d guess it wouldn’t get too big and heavy? My mature laying hens are...

I wanted to ask for ideas for "how to make" a coop-space out of the space underneath the barn roof and get rid of the pre-fab coop I have under there now. I'm expecting 5 more chicks soon and need to rebuild. I'm in love with Brahmas, so, larger sized box spaces are appreciated ! Also, will they...

Really looking for some help! I have 8 one year old light Brahma hens, and one rooster. My ladies have been laying wonderfully, 6-7 eggs through the winter and into February. Now they have suddenly halted their egg production, it’s been almost a month now. Most days it has been only 2 eggs...

A few years ago, after starting out with a flock of grown hens given to me by a friend, I decided to get a few chicks to raise. A young and inexperienced chick keeper, I headed over to TSC and carefully picked out six chicks in breeds of interest to me. I was naive to the TSC stories of woe, in...

Hello, I have a question about the Eglu cube and whether or not it will fit a brahma? I currently have x2 silkies, welsummer, wheaten maran and a legbar. Would a brahma be able to fit in the cube with them comfortably? And does it have any problems nesting and getting in and out of the cube...

Hey guys! This is my 4 week old Buff Brahma Bantam chick. Is it too early to tell if it’s a hen or roo? Different behavior from my other chicks makes me suspicious, but I know behavior isn’t a good indicator. What do you guys think?

I see this is a fairly common question, but I've got a picture and anyone with more experience is welcome to school me! I'm leaning toward Brahma because of the big eyebrows, but I'm not sure if that's a pea-comb or not? Also the coloring seems lighter than I see on most... I've been raising...

Hi everyone, i have a feeling my 3 week old chick has eye problems? Not sure if its normal behavior or not cause i have never raised a chick like this (a lone chick imprinted to me). He/she (i will call it her for now, even though i think she might be a he) gets startled easily, if something...

FREE - 2 Buff Brahma Chickens - Located in Dallas, TX Sophia and Dorothy are two docile backyard chickens. Unfortunately, the two have gotten bigger than expected and outgrown their living space. Looking to find them a new home. Please contact with any serious inquiries. Background: Brahmas...

hi everyone, at the start of the year i ordered 10 eggs which i got an extra 1. the first 2 days one of the egg started oozing so i cleaned the incubator again before the rest go in. Sadly, from all the eggs only 1 hatched (cochin/brahma) chick. guessing its cochin but not sure cause they mixed...

I memed Dupree (kudos to anyone who knows the original comic)

Our pandemic egg incubation project has resulted in 5 roosters. My family cannot keep that many (planning on keeping 1-2). They're good boys -- typical Brahma gentle giants (crossed with Barred Rock, Buff Orpington, and Black Australorp). Not aggressive. Not fighting with each other. Just...

Hello! This is my first post. I have 5 beautiful - 8 month old buff Brahma hens. 2 of them just started laying about 2 weeks ago and im sure the others will follow suit soon. However, I have 1 brahma that is always the last to run over to me, she is very shy and will not eat out of my hand, and...

I have a Buff Brahma named Bobbi who has always been the sweetest and most apt to show me friendly attention. Her breed is a docile breed (they're called the friendly giants!). Her and my other two hens (a speckled sussex named Nancy and a Buff Orpington named Marge) just turned 6months old and...

Have no clue which girl laid out first egg, but by golly we’ve got 1!!! They are 30weeks and 2 days, I was beginning to think it would never happen.
