Light Brahma Chicks - 9 weeks

[bleu chick]

Any idea what I have? I think these are both roos. I want to rehome the roos as soon as possible. But this is my first batch of Brahmas so I am not 100% sure.

There Dark Brahmas.
I would say there roosters...

Both are roosters, and dark brahmas.

I thought Dark Brahmas looked like this. They dont have any of that detailing on the feathers.

You have dark Brahmas. The top two are males and the last photo you posted is a female.

Males have the shimmer...females have the pencilling.

These don't look like light brahma. Mine are about the same age. They are much lighter in color. A lot more white!

I would say roos.

Well then I give up on ebay eggs. I purchased Light Brahmas. And there was a pic of their adults for comparison. So I am very confused.

Well at least my assumption on the roos was right because they have to be rehomed soon. 3 roos if anyone is interested. I have one more set of chicks to deal with. 5 roos in the next batch - Marans. Need to rehome them as well.

I am in the city and cant have any crowing

It is possible for them to just be very bad quality Light brahmas.
