Got 7 eggs from my 7 buff looking brahmas today. I guess they are all laying now. They turned 6months old yesterday. I have some brown, beige, and pink eggs.

She seems more cochin to me.Ok. Got a close-up shot so you can see her comb. Thoughts? Brahma or not? Her coloring is exactly the opposite of most I see. She's white shoulders up and has the darker feathers in a pattern down her back. Her tail has the darkest feathers. Oh and excuse the teal paint on her beak. I was doing some painting and she had to investigate. =)

Usually mixes are much more brahma looking than cochin looking. We'll all know as soon as she gets a little olderCochins will have the rounded, pillowey tail as opposed to pointy.
Could she be a mix?

True. I didnt think about that. I was going off of what looks like a straight comb. My bantam cochin's tail is very floofie. Our chick in question up above there has a tail almost reminiscent of an Easter Egger or Ameraucana. What ever she is she sure is cute...
Yeah, I've had a few mixes hatch that I never could figure out who they came from. I had one that was barred rock all of the way until you looked at her feet. She had 5 toes and little furry feet....yeah, she was a silkie mix but looked NOTHING like a silkie and couldn't have been a barred rock because I didn't have one of those. So, it was anyones guess what she came from. Maybe the chicken fairy came in and dropped her off one night.One of my favorite mixes is a bantam birchen cochin(dad)/EE mix. And for the life of me, it looks like my three SSH/cochin/ d'Uccle mixes (not sutsure who daddy is) look like boys, but only obe crows, and has been for months. Mixes are hard to figure out.
