This is my only Rooster, He is called bruno.He is molting in this pic, the sketch is his tail after molt, he has a carridge almost same level as head and has a V shaped body
Is he a pure breed Brahama? If not suggestions of breed would be helpful.

Ol Chuck there looks more red than buff to me. Also seems to be sporting a rather non Brahma like temperment. I'm betting there is an outcross in Chucks family tree.
 
big medicine,
Chuck Norris came from a hatchery..Murry McMurry I think.

Featherland26,
Your rooster is GORGEOUS! I LOOOOOVE him!

v.cyr,
Your roo is still in the gangly teenager stage. Give him another 6-8 months and he'll be looking "buff".
 
I love Bruno, but unfortunatly he is a little big for my small hens (hybrid egg-layers), I had one hen had a massive cut on her back from his 1.5 inch spurs, she had a really bad infection I had someone else to cull her. I'd love to rehome him, I live in berkshire, Uk. however it is going at the end of the breeding season...... I was asking about the breed because I was curious.

To the US Standard he's not a good Brahma (but still beautiful!) However in the UK I think that's a perfectly fine specimen (no expert!!) of a Partridge Brahma.

I'm assuming you're from Europe though. Partridge here is rare, and those legs are even more so.


EDIT - Ah, read the last post. Silly me.

My flock is pretty young (by brahma standards!!) about 11 months. My fertility is not so great. I've added breeder solution to their water and they get a nice mix of food with occasional treats. Great coop & pen should be happy and mating all day!! LOL

Someone just told me to trim/cut their butt feathers. Does anyone else do that or have other solutions?
 
I think what they need most is time. I was so disappointed at first with my darks I put every egg into the incubator and everyone was clear. Then finally I hatched one Now no problem Just give them alittle more time he has to growup some that is all.
