Brahmas

[Bp10244]

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



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

Some photos.

Those are probably the prettiest chickens I’ve ever seen

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

Honestly, I just got my first light brahma rooster two days ago, He's about 7 months old and compared any other roosters I've had so far he's been very docile, he has been in a fight with our other rooster but he doesn't go looking for any if that makes sense.

They are such dignified giants, it's a thrill to see them

I got my first Brahmas yesterday, Buffs I think. They were super cool today fitting in with the flock. They just wandered about, calm as could be .

Brahmas are a beautiful breed and I definitely dream to own and breed them. @sassysarah , do you still have your Brahmas?

I am hoping to get a Brahma pullet soon so this thread has been really helpful.

My only concern is whether their feathered feet will cause me problems living in a very rainy UK. I currently have a mixed flock of a silkie hen and cockerel and 2 Marans.

Do you find the brahmas are extra work or need special care apart from keeping their feet dry? I let mine free range in the garden but when it is really wet they stay in their covered run
