My husband bought 6 light Brahmas about 10 weeks ago. They are growing like weeds! "George" is getting a lot of waddle and a lot of comb, and two others have quite a bit. Two are very "hennish", smaller, daintier, very little waddle or comb. We can't have roosters (we are working on the zoning end of things) but I have found a good home for them (if we have them at all). Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Just an FYI, those are not pure Light Brahmas. They look like they were crossed with a Silkie, hence the black wattles and combs. I am by no means an expert but I do have quite a few silkies. They feathers are also silkie like. With the size of George's wattles and combs I would say definitely a roo. I hope you get all your zoning issues squared away, as he is very pretty.
Quote:Gosh toritori As others have posted, these guys have a strong Silkie background--not seeing a lot of Brahma there. If you would post individual pictures with names I am sure that the gurus (not me!) can help you sex them more accurately. George does look pretty obviously boy to me, though! You could look at the zoning and see how its written to buy you time (since you are trying to re-zone and all)...technically young male chickens are called cockerels until 1 year of age at which time they are referred to as roosters.
Thank you sooooo much! I have been looking at all the Brahma photos online and ours definitely didn't look like the Brahmas!!!
