What breed is my pullet....?

[Butterscotchbitesfinger]

Where did you get them?

At a chicken breeder. They were sold to me as Pekins, the strange thing is that the breeder doesn’t sell Brahmas yet she appears to be a Brahma

agree with frazzemrat1

How does that work? They don’t stock or sell Brahmas

Hi there,
I purchased two ‘pekin bantams’ thinking they were girls, it has turned out one is a pekin bantam and a cockerel. But I’m having trouble deciding if the other is a pekin or a Brahma.
Plz help if possible

If they don’t keep any Brahmas then it must be a Pekin.
I think it’s a little young to really tell yet but it doesn’t seem to have a straight comb
Perhaps it’s a mix?
After perusing old photos of my Pekin (Cochin) bantam pullets, I saw that the comb is obvious even at 4-6 weeks so I don’t know about this little one.
She’s awfully cute though!

Yeah I will check their website and possibly even email them to ask. I’m pretty certain they don’t keep Brahmas but they do sell coochins

Just checked they don’t sell coochins or Brahmas. Confusing...
