Couple of things we are sure of.
First if she is a full size bird or if she is a bantam. She was in the bin with the rest of the light Brahmas but she is much smaller than the other 3 birds I got at the same time. The other 3 (1 jersey giant, 1 black sex link, and 1 RIR). So I know that the Jersey is going to be bigger, but if you see the pictures, she is smaller than that RIR and the white is a leghorn that’s a few weeks older than both of them.

Second looking for thoughts on the red comb and waddles already. Is this a sign of a roo? This bird was supposed to be in a group of all pullets, at least according to TSC.

There are no brahma in the picture and yes, that's a cockerel, hatcheries are only 90% accurate in sexing and most don't sex bantam.
The grey one is the Brahma, he/she whatever has feathers all over the legs. Again I’m fairly new to this but I wonder why it’s so much smaller than the hens of the same age

Not a Brahma, likely a bantam cochin cockerel that got mixed in somehow.

Still not a Brahma. This chick has a single comb and Brahmas do not. Looks like maybe a bantam Cochin to me.
 
All great news, ….. not well good thing I know someone who would be willing to take it. We will see how it goes, I’ll keep posting updates on this thread as they get older
