Light brahma

[chickenbh1999]

About a week ago I bought what I thought was light brahmas (bought 2) and the pullet pictures I've saw of them they have feathers on their feet. But mine don't is this usual?

Yes it is unusual. They likely are not Brahma.

Check to see if they have a rose, pea or single comb. Brahma is pea comb.

I can't tell what kinda comb they have yet there only like 1 and a half week old @Egghead_Jr

Go to ur byc search bar and search for the brahma thread. These guys on there know everything about brahmas. I am subscribed to the brahma thread and im a newbie. I have 9 brahmas that are 18 weeks old today. They give awesome advice

Hello and Welcome To BYC! If you want help figuring out what your chicks are, you could try posting pictures on the What Breed Or Gender Is This forum, they're still young but you may get some ideas https://www.backyardchickens.com/f/15/what-breed-or-gender-is-this

Welcome to BYC!

Yes, I do believe that Brahma's do have feathered feet. Kelsie has left you with the link to our What Breed section here on BYC for some good ID.

Good luck with your new chicks and welcome to our flock!

Mine did not have feathers on their feet for the first few weeks. They do now. If u take a pic and post it on the brahma thread, they will know.

If you bought a hatchery bird - sometimes their birds are not up to breed standards

I received Light Brahma's (ordered 9) from Murray McMurray today and all of them have feathered feet and legs.

Will post close up pic's tomorrow .....
