Hello! Yes I can, so I will probably give him a try. Every time I get chicks I have one. I always give them a few months, but they get mean and I get scared of them. I've heard Brahmas are sweet so I'm hoping this one is..
That's not really reliable either. My first flock was 5 brahmas and a BJG. The brahmas feathered out all over the place; some fast, some slow. I was so paranoid that I had half cockerels that I ordered 6 more chicks from Meyer. I ended up with 12 pullets. Lucky me, but brahmas can't be sexed by feather sexing, or how fast they feather out.
I was talking about feathering out in general.
so was I. My brahmas feathered out all over the place, some fast some slow and all pullets.
It was hard to tell, it's okay though.
That makes me feel much better. I noticed when I went back into the farm store the Brahmas from this same batch had probably 60% with really long wing feathers and 40% short wings, so then I was like either there's a lot of roosters in there or you just can't tell by that. I was thinking of switching this one out for one with longer feathers, but I have my babies all tamed so well, I didn't want to lose that 10 days of bonding. I honestly love this one it's such a cool laid back little baby.
Just be patient. Hatcheries are pretty good about vent sexing, 90%... so there's a possibility that a cockerel can sneak in, but still the odds are in your favor for pullets.
ALL of them? wow... do you spend time with them? That might help!
