Sexing Dark Brahmas

[TheOddOneOut]

And here are my friend's birds. #4: No white patches at all, but we're thinking boy, because of the iridescent tail feathers.

#5: (seems obviously a pullet, now)

and #6: (also seems to be a pullet)

Anyway, that #4 is the one we are concerned about.

4 is a boy. Two of your birds are too.

Yes I would agree and say
4. Cockerel
5. Pullet
6. Pullet

They’re all very pretty! One of my favorite breeds. They’re sweet birds.

You've got it down now. You can visually sex Dark Brahmas because the feather patterns are different between males, making them sexually dimorphic. The pullets have the pretty penciled feathers while the males have black breasts, silver/white shoulders (wing bows). In my experience Brahma cockerels tend to feather a bit slower than the pullets as well.
