Hi all

We took these pair to a local agricultural show and they got placings in their class

the Columbian Buff got 1st place and the silver blue got 2nd

I love these two to bits they are my gentle giants

I love the lacing on dark Brahma. I wish I lived on a farm. Morgan mine looks the same in the face I can't wait to get 4 out of 4.maybe I need to go away for the weekend. Lol

A little of the normal queries I suppose, but I am wondering about egg size with bantam Brahma. I have LF Brahma and large bird get large eggs. I have other bantam breeds (no Brahmas) and some give surprisingly large eggs and others quite small. Anyone out there care to comment?

I have had a few Brahma Bantams over the years and believe the Brahma lay one of the largest bantam eggs since they are one of the larger bantams.

I agree with Don, bantam Brahmas lay a very good sized egg. Mine are very good layers as well.

can't wait to see the size of mine, twiddles thumbs while waiting.

Love seeing people post their Brahmas from outside the US here!

. . . Wish I had good lookin' Brahmas, but those are so rare in the US. Perhaps next year I'll get lucky.

To me, Brahmas are like Polish. Sure, there's loads of them at hatcheries and loads of people who got them from hatcheries - But you really don't hear often of them from quality breeders. Often if you do, they're rare color varieties. (Tolbunt Polish, Silver/Buff Laced Brahmas)

LOVE yours though, of course.
