Here is my light Brahma Roo. HE is just under 9 months and getting big! almost triple the size of all my other chickens (mostly RIR and Red Sex Link). I just think he is so gorgeous! New coop Under construction in the background. Also video of him crowing at 6 months linked below.
Hi there! I recently got a little buff (such a sweet girl) and a light brahma - I'm a bit worried she's a roo because she's so big, although I know the breed is big anyway! I'm not sure we can have roos and my husband will kill me but after raising her from 8 weeks (now 16) we're already...
Hi there, my name is Dawn Hutchins,
I wanted to introduce myself and answer the questions!
(1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens?
I've had chickens for almost two years. I rescued three from a neighbor that was moving and didn't want them any more. When we were...
Hi everyone. These two are amazing. We have four chicks and these are the only healthy two. I am hoping for both pullets. The light Brahma should be a pullet, however the Russian orloff was a straight run. Any help on sexing would be great.
I got a bunch on babies 10 weeks ago and 3 if them are light brahmas. I know that one BA that I have is a roo and im quite happy with that. But i think a brahma might be a rooster too. Could someone help me out, these are my first brahmas
Hi all,
I have a flock of four hens in my Northwest back yard: Light Brahma (Chips), Golden Sex Link (Peepen), Black Australorp (Bindin), and a Silver Laced Wyandotte (Neptune). They are my little buddies and they all lay eggs! I love my gals and they have made life a sweeter thing, especially...
I have a 5 month old Light Brahma that has for months made weird noises. Always squeaks when she eats, and sneezes. Not every time, but enough that it stands out. I got two at the same time, and she is noticeably smaller than the other. Again, at first I didn’t think much of it but I’m wondering...
I have a golden comet sitting on some eggs from my Colombian Wyandotte that we’re fertilized by my light Brahma rooster. They should hatch this weekend. What will they look like when they hatch?
Hello all!
I have recently decided to build my backyard chicken run! Woohoo! While this is a super exciting time, it's also really stressful because I want to do everything right to ensure that I have a happy and healthy flock. Here's my sitch:
I live in Minnesota- which means winters reach 30...
Here is our Light Brahma Maeve. This is our first brood of backyard chickens, and they’re finally getting to a sexing age (for some.) I think I know where this one is headed, but I would love some input, just about 8 wks: (help me rip of the bandaid)
This is Paco, my Light Brahma Rooster. We got him from a friend at a few months old after our rooster, Pollo, grew mean. He has six Light Brahma hens in his flock and is the sweetest guy! He loves to eat out of your hand and pouts if he does not get to, loves to talk to people, and is a super...
I have no clue what these are!!
The pictures got scattered..
Barred rock- 3 months old
Wyandotte- 1 month old
White Cochin bantam- 2 months old
light Brahma- 2 months old
I got questions on their behavior I’ve asked around before but maybe the right users weren’t on. I have a 5 week old LB and curious about behavior she seems very lazy I know they are a very docile breed but don’t know to what extent. While the other girls are busy scratching and foraging away...
I can't figure this one out. To me it looks pullet but its behavior and late feathering made me think roo. I'm new to Brahmas so any help is appreciated.
Hey y'all!
A couple of weeks ago i ordered some light brahma chicks. About a week ago i noticed one of them limping. The chick wouldn't let me do anything to it and I've read to just leave it alone and it'll heal on its own. Well this morning I've noticed it's swollen and i removed the chick...
i have two light brahmas that are the same age, 6 weeks.
They are almost identical now except for a few slight differences. I have noticed ones comb is almost not even noticeable and yellow. The other has a small comb and it is pink.
I’m wondering if the one with the slightly larger comb may...
I have done lots of research in regards to sexing these light brahma chicks. I am assuming as of now they are pullets due to the combs. I realize it may still yet be to early to determine and the surefire way to know is when it cries. However, as this is my first time owning these gentle giants...
I currently have 2 black sexlinks 1 barred rock 1 buff Orpington 1 red sexlink 1 Americana 1 silver laced Wyandotte and 1 light Brahma. My question is for those familiar with light brahmas. Are they generally less energetic than other breeds? My “teddy” is so laid back she/he doesn’t really...
Hello maybe this is some sort of breed of light Brahma but why are those so big and mine just looks like a plump hen? Sorry if this is a stupid question thanks guys!
Hi there!
Brand new chicken tender here. I got some bantams about 3 weeks ago: 2 light brahmas, 1 blue laced red wyandottes (I had two but one died D: ), and 1 silver laced polish. I'm pretty sure my wyandotte is a roo and my polish is a hen. My polish is a week younger than the other 3 and was...
