Male Pharaohs usually have orange on their chests, a bit of a bib (some more pronounced than others) and a spotless chest and underbelly.

These are both pics of Scrappy, my daft quail boi. I think both females and males can be tamed, but males are certainly more confident and/or standoffish and thus easier to tame... Scrappy used to be a firecracker who charged at me angrily chattering, then did panic squeaks when I picked him up. Now he is just moosh who loves attention.
 
Can you post a full picture of Braemar? Have you tried vent sexing yet? I can show you how when I have a new hen for you and you come to pick her up.
Thanks to another post I found on here...I'm pretty positive that Braemar is what's called a Rosetta? All the results I find on Google images when i search Rosetta look exactly like her. Pretty sure now that she is female too, as the three feather sexable roos, Butter, BAMN, and Bhutan, have all started crowing.
