Brahma Thread

[solanaskyes]

My Brahmas are here! I'm amazed at how tame and docile this guys are especially after getting shipped all the way from WA to TX. Here is the cockerel. He's 8 months old and already 9.3lbs:






Opinions and feedback on him? I'll try to get some pics of the pullet to post too...

Makes me hope that one of my brahma chicks will be a roo. Gosh, the brahma roosters are so regal looking to me.

I think he is a fine looking brahma.

Gotta be hereditary. Very interesting.

I wonder if someone could develop a breed with that trait... I bet people would pay a pretty penny for a breed with an oddball trait like that... I mean, just look how many people love silkies(weirdest chickens ever, IMHO)...

I purchased this pair of LF Light Brahmas a week and a half ago at a show. They are young, Aug or Sept hatches. I really like them, such calm dispositions. I am thinking about purchasing a second or third pair as well. What do you all think??? I welcome any feedback on the birds thank you.

A 2nd pic.

Look to have good size and color. The pullet shows good quality of feather. To be honest, not really loving the cockerels head . If you are thinking of getting more, I believe I would try to bring in some good wide skulls. Do like the pullet..

The earlier shots you posted just of the cockerel gave me the impression he might be on the small side. Liking these shots better . The first thing that catches my eye here is the nice wide upside down U shape of the tail both birds show.
