Dark Brahma Chick color gene mutation???

I agree the hen is mixed, so your chicks will be a crapshoot as to what you get.

And I think the dark chick is a cockerel, that's a lot of color to the comb for this young age.

The hen is mixed. Does not have the silver base color of a Dark Brahma, and she's clean legged. She has a gold base color. This is why you got that odd chick.

The hen is not mixed, She just took a dirt bath, so she's gonna be dirty. It was a bad photo, sorry. And she's not clean legged, either. Once again it was a bad photo.

Had the hen ever been exposed to any other roosters in the last few months?

No, just that one shown.

The hen's foot feathering is all torn up, and she's growing new ones. Will get a pic.

Dirt baths do not change the whole body's coloring. She is gold base color, not silver. She is mixed. Even her head is gold. Sorry, but she isn't pure Dark Brahma.
