Rooster or Hen Buff Brahma 15 weeks

[mdumoulin7]

Hi, hope you are enjoying BYC!

They will be pullets or cockerels technically until 1 year old when they get their hen or rooster badges.

Can't make any important detail out to assess gender in those pics. Please post a standing side view without the fencing. Brahma can be slow maturing but most will be starting to sport some saddle feathers by now...

According to JUST waddle size and age... could be female. But better pics required.

15 weeks was stated in the title.

I'm still going to say boy. The stance and body shape say male to me.

I hope so, but some things just say dude on that one. I just took these a few minutes ago. This is Sallie,100% lady bird. You can see and compare, they're pretty close to the same age.

At that age I am going with girl.

Thank you so much for taking the time to do that! You have a gorgeous bird! Pretty much the same age but I can def see the differences. Our Brahma leg feathers are a little more pronounced. I wonder why...

That would be awesome!

Just different genetics from different hatcheries. Sallie is a Meyers hatchery bird. They inherit subtle differences from the breeder flock.
