PLEASE tell me this isn't a cockerel!!!!

[_Moon_]

I’m not trying to argue - I just don’t want more people to be misinformed.

Well, i'm telling you what i know, can see, and what i'm learning.

I agree. Cockerel.

I have not had the best luck with cockerels so far. I have a 7 week old light brahma who is starting to look.... suspicious. Is this a HE???

Can you also send a vid of behavior around hens and other males?

I'll try to get a video. I currently have an almost 6 month old cockerel who is a bit feisty and to be honest I am scared to let these younger chicks near him or the older pullets. I keep the 7 week olds separate from them.

I really loathe sexing Brahmas. Let's call in the Brahma Queen - @Rhodebar Lover! What's your opinion on this cute chick?

I will also add, this chick is the bravest out of all of them. Some of the others are quite flighty but this one runs up and inspects everything first. Not a deciding factor I know.

could moon and oddoneout stop fighting? its getting a bit annoying

I agree, but actually, that bird is definitely male- dark Brahmas are gender deviant when it comes to color. That one’s a boy.

Omg so sorry, I wasn’t even thinking about that …

Thanks for the tag! Absolutely no clue why there are people saying pullet. He's all boy
