Brahmas

[Bp10244]

As I was buying chicks last fall and I was trying to find the perfects breeds, I happened to stumble across light brahmas. I loved how plus sized they were and their color so I decided I would just get one pullet. Fast forward 6 months and I’ve seen just how many variations of brahmas there really are. I’m planning on ordering blue partridge hatching egg or chicks, but I thought I’d ask everybody about their brahmas first. What colors do you have? Any favorites I should add to my list? (This is my light Brahma, Pam)

Gentle giants Docile and friendly, never had an aggressive one.

So glad to hear that! After our last cockerel, my family was a little skeptical of a rooster that would be double the size.

I breed blue buff columbian, golden partridge and lemon Pyle brahmas.

I know that temperament may vary by individual, but in your experience, how do the Brahma roosters act?

I’ve never had an aggressive Brahma rooster, they’re a very good natured breed.

Some photos.

I'm a big brahma fan I have lights, and a color project I've been working on. In addition, I just added lavender, buff laced, and gold laced.

For me, it depended on each roo, i had 5 or 6, 2 were very bad, 2 were "normal" roos, and 2 were very tame! I handled them all alot as chicks too. Ive heard most people sawy they are a pretty mild breed. I think the full sized ones might be more mild than the bantams... i thought I'd share this funny pic i got when i had one in my "photo pen," he didnt like being moved and was being silly and i caught a pic of him looking like a round ball!

Those are probably the prettiest chickens I’ve ever seen

I just sold all my brahmas, decided to focus on breeding cochins and silkies instead. But i wish i had kept a hen of each around just for fun in my mixed flock as they are such lovely birds. I have only ever had light and dark brahma bantams.

Yours are very beautiful!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
