Show Off Your Brahmas!

[speckledhen]

I'm so glad you posted these pictures. You have the best Brahmas. I love bash. I want a 6' poster of him next to the hen house!

I want one in my craft room! Thanks for the compliment on my Bash. He's the sweetest rooster ever. Good thing, too! You sure don't want a mean one that big! My husband is about to paint his portrait for someone, but he'd better do one for me, too.

Thanks, Trish! I cannot take credit for Bash, of course. brahmapapa raises some spectacular Brahmas. All I did was hatch, raise and keep them healthy. But, Bash has a daughter, Cora, who is now one of his hens. And there will probably be more later in the spring, we'll see. Bash is about to be immortalized in oils by my husband, though he is painting him for a friend of his who wants a rooster painting for over her fireplace. I told him he had to do another one for me like he did of my late, beloved Isaac.

How will your husband get Bash to stand still while he paints him?

Haha, I can't even get him to stand still while I take his picture! He'll be painting from one of the photos I took a few days ago.

Next September They must be really popular.
I can’t wait to get my Light Brahma chick in April or May

All three do it together, even the cockerel. I feel like they want a tropical vacation, a nice pina colada, a little coconut... oh wait that's what I want!

My Light Brahmas would plop down in a sunny spot and fan out a wing over their body and just soak up the sun. I miss my children so much

Do we have an unadvertised breed trait here? Mine don't miss a second of sun they really love it. Much more than the other breeds.

Here's the cockerel. They are just hatchery stock but pretty enough for me.
