Brahma Thread

Look for saddle feathers on his back. That is how I tell the cockerels from the pullets.

OK... finally got a few pics of the production buff brahma I have who is now 12 weeks old...
Any thoughts on sex?




Thanks

Tim and all , My egg eater i am thinking of putting her in with Patron and having a nest that drops the eggs into another area as she is my best hen from NY my favorite one at that . I do not want to loose her genes .

how long does it take to make sure the roo does his job ? So far her eggs are not fertile so im gonna try and force romance so to say 12x6 kennel and small house just for this is alreadt set up but i never imagined id have to do this because Pearl became an egg eater ................. Wish me luck

If only 17 weeks, I would guess cockerel due to the size and color of the comb/wattles, but I would like to see a side picture.
