Backyard Brahmas!!

@bumpercarr - I'm afraid I didn't realize before now that you have a "Big Boy" also. I called my guy that more for lack of a name but it stuck, lol. Just so you know I wasn't high jacking your name.

I knew you weren't, LOL! I suspect that there are hundreds of folks calling their Brahma cocks Big Boy, after all, that is what they are!

I think #2 and the last one are definitely pullets. #4 & 5 look like cockerels to me. The other two I'm not sure about. Let me know how I did on the guessing when you know for sure!

All the talk of miss use of the term "Pyle" I have lemon Pyle brahma they are dominant white, I've never had a blue chick putting one up with a dark patterned, I was only stating the breed that I have, we do use the term splash over in the uk so there's no confusion there.

That's encouraging. What pattern are your birds ?

So what are the common term used to describe the light colored chicks from breeding two blue partridge, or two blue buff columbians, over there ?

I stink at this game...can't even identify my own birds!
Did you say these were terrified of you? They look pretty calm now.
