A Buff Orpington Rooster over a Buff Brahma hen will give you Buff colored chickens. I'm pretty sure the Brahma dark markings would show through on both males and females. They should have feathers on the legs.

A Buff Orpington Rooster over a Light Brahma hen will give you red sex link chicks. The males will have yellow down and the female chicks will have a more reddish down, but that reddish may be pretty close to yellow-orange. You may need to see the chicks next to each other to be able to tell them apart.

The adult males will be mostly white but with a yellow/gold color in the hackle and saddle feathers. The dark markings from the Brahma should show up in the tail and on the neck. The adult females should be colored a lot like the Buff Brahma, a light red (buff) color and the markings of the Brahma. They should have feathers on the legs.

The Buff Brahma rooster over a Buff Orpington hen should give you chickens that look a lot like the Buff Brahma chickens.

On any of these, I am talking about feather color and patterns. Body configuration will vary.
