Okay thanks. I was told it was a Brahma when I bought it. I believed it because of the feathers on its legs and feet lol.

Perhaps a Cochin or even a cross bred. A free standing profile picture would be of help for identification.

Agreeing that is a not brahma boy. Also agreeing that side pics would help in breed id, but I suspect a mix.

They do like to do that. Maybe tempt him with treats, or use another set of hands?

It looks like a mixed breed to me, or at least not a breed I recognize.

I think he is of the "Tractor Supply" breed lol. I usually only purchase RIRs from my local feed store. I was late, they were out, so my butt headed off to the TSC. Lol
