Brahma chickens

[FBMcrazy8]

I have buff, light, and dark. The dark are my favorites, but it probably depends on where you get them.
If you can get eggs or chicks from a breeder, you'll probably get better quality chicks.

I will probably get them from Cackle. I don’t know of any breeders near me. And Google isn’t much help with that. I’m kinda leaning towards the light Brahmas. But they are all so pretty!!

Are you just interested in hens? If so, a hatchery is the way to go. You may still get a male, but your chances of getting females are much improved.

I would want probably one male and hens. They would have their own coop and run because of how big they are. The current coop we have won’t be big enough.

Hi there in Idaho do you have pictures of your two brahma ? Which leads me to a question ? You said dark is that the same as black ?

Let me get a pic for you! They are grey with white penciling in the feathers with white heads.

I wouldn't order a male. I'd just order extra females, from the reviews I've read (for cackle) you'll probably end up with a male.

I thought about doing a straight run, but I don’t wanna end up with all of them being roosters. Or anything but maybe 2 Roos

I ordered 15 from meyers some time ago. We love our Brahmas. I have a dark and light rooster, light, dark and buff hens. The dark are by far my favorite.

Hey thanks, my black ones turned out to be Midnight Majestic Marans lol. But I do have a light Brahma. They are about 6 weeks old

Welcome. I got mine as 6-week-old pullets. They will come near me, but I can't catch them. I'm very glad they are healthy. I have two dark brahmas
