Brahma or Cochin?

[Chickhick]

I bought this chick along with some others (that I'm pretty sure are Cochin Bantams) from TSC in the assorted Bantams. I had thought this was a Cochin, too, with the heaviliy feathered feet, but I was looking at some Dark Brahma pictures, and this kinda looks like that to me. This one has a different posture from the others, too. What do ya'll think? (Any guesses on sex, too?)

It looks more like a Brahma than a Cochin to me. In the face mostly. My Cochin chicks always have a slightly longer beak, and just have a generally different look to their face than this. It's a pretty chick though. It sort of looks like my Dark Brahma roo did as a chick, though not in color. I couldn't tell you what color this chick is! Hope someone can come along and give you a for certain answer.

Ahhh... the combs are different.

Does this look like a pea comb to you? Not much comb there to look at!

Thanks!!!

Yup I would say dark Brahma.

 

[Chickhick]

Good... I've never had a Brahma!

 

[onthespot]

They are big and gentle. You did good!

I REALLY want to say Dark Brahma, since the head looks a little coarse to be a Cochin, but those mottedly wing feathers are throwing me off.

Is there a partridge brahma? That's what I'd say. Just guessing though.
