Yeah that’s her Delaware. They’re loudmouths

So a Delaware is very nearly identical to our brahmas in colors and patterns ... And accent! (Sheesh)

KD, Beercan, sour..you staying well?

So far so good, Cynthia - actually did something 'non essential' yesterday. Social distanced to the best of our ability. Some don't get the message.

The brown/white splotched bird is a Speckled Sussex.

She does look like the Light Brahmas I’ve seen!! But FC is right that she is a Delaware and YES! An obnoxious loudmouth.

It’s hilarious because they get really quiet when they’re free ranging but otherwise they yell at me all day long they’re used to free ranging daily lately so now they get really mad if I don’t let them out

But I can’t let them out atm because they’ll eat my vegetables and also tear up my mom’s garden too and throw mulch everywhere

Oh and yes the brown one is a Speckled Sussex and the colorful ones below are Easter Eggers.

Yeah the neck pattern looks identical. Think light brahmas have more black on wings and tail. I have a bantam light brahma rooster.

They are both a loudmouth breed mine are always talking.

apparently so!!! She’s HUGE too so could probably pass as a Brahma if I glued some feathers to her feet

That’s awesome!!! I need to expand mine. I think that’s part of the problem. It’s a tad too small atm and it’s barren

I think I’m gonna go dig up some holes for them. They love that. It exposes the worms and bugs and stuff haha

I’m gonna add a dust bathing area too I think because there really isn’t one and the first thing they do when they get out is go dust bathe

Technically they could bathe in the dirt in there but they’re particular LOL
