Snowflake - What am I? - More pics

[Sjisty]

When I was brand new to BYC I posted a picture of Snowflake. Ya'll thought she was a pullett. What do you think now? Is it just me or are her tail feathers starting to sickle? She is supposed to be a buff Brahma. I contacted the man from whom I bought the eggs and he said she couldn't possibly be a mix, but she has a light body and a buff neck and head. Any guesses?

I don't know too far really... can you get a closer one of the back? I don't see any sickly feathers from this distance though... How old? I am also not familiar with Brahma, just going by what you said about the sickle feathers.

I think that the pattern on her tail feathers makes them look pointy. If you look are the edges, they look more rounded. I seriously doubt that she is a buff brahma. She's the wrong color and is too upright.

Going to get more pictures . . .

OK, they just aren't cooperating. I can't get her to be still and keep the others away. Here are some more shots - I couldn't get a good one of her comb but it is still pretty small. The true buff in the picture is supposed to be her sibling.

Interesting looking bird. No idea of why unless he is a chimera. Brahmas are very slow developing, but I do think yours looks masculine. No guarantees, though.

It looks very rooish
