Brahmas have PEA combs, not rose. Type makes the breed, color=variety. If you really want to breed the best, get rid of all the crow-headed birds as well. Some of your birds appear to have decent type. I would only breed from them.

whats a crow headed bird look like? I know the look the birds are supposed to have because they have the evil eye look like my father lol

Its just a long, skinny, pointy beaked head, as opposed to the broad, deep, heavy browed type head the SOP and Bantam Standard require. The Bantam Standard says"HEAD: Medium length, broad, crown projecting over eyes, heavily feathered over eyes."

 

[Tim63]

Examples of good Brahma heads.

No hatching eggs available from anyone on here? I'm in need of either buff or light.

I'll sell Light Bantam eggs in a week or two, I need to make sure I hatch all I need first. The fertility of my Buffs lags far behind my lights. It takes me longer to hatch all the buffs i need, so i will not sell buff eggs.
Don't know if you wanted Bantams?
