Dark Brahmas?

[CrissyMH]

I have a couple 5 month old chickens that were labeled as Dark Brahmas at Tractor Supply. They don't look like the photos I've seen of Dark Brahmas. They have no feathers on their legs, and they have small crests of feathers on top of their heads. Does anyone know what they are?

They are olive eggers. They're made by crossing Legbars with brown egg layers.

Thank you. I love their colors, especially the darker one. I guess I'll know which eggs are theirs when they start to lay.

Yes they should be green or olive. Those are nice, healthy hens. Good job raising them.

Thank you. I enjoy getting to know all their personalities, though sometimes they are a little too interested in what I'm doing. We call them Velociraptors, lol.
