What do y’all think?

It's a mixed breed. Funky coloration with both genders is expected with the crossing you have.

I was told it didn’t matter because its basically a sexlink trait or something in brahmas, so idk.

Your bird is not a Dark Brahma, though, so those rules don't apply to it.

Brahmas(Purebred Dark Brahmas), are silver partridge/Pencilled. Their coloration is sexually dimorphic, meaning they look different. You see this(Difference)in Wheaten, & Duckwing/wild type birds too.


But since this is a Light Brahma mix, which is Silver Columbian, on partridge base, there won't be any sexually dimorphic traits. Male, or female type feathering appears as they mature.

Definitely male, lol. Not sure what is tripping y’all up.

The lack of development or color in the comb and wattles for the age of the bird, and the fact that I've seen Easter-eggers who look similarly pretty masculine by their coloration at this age and still turn out to be female. Being a jumble of genetics makes it harder to be sure than with a bird of a definite variety. But, I'm leaning male as well, personally.

what is it that says this? since apparently the color doesn’t matter with him since he’s mixed. ( Although, I myself think he’s a male as well. )

He does have a male-specific pattern. Those brassy shoulder patches solidify it. His pattern isn’t exactly like a male Brahma but he still has a mixed male-specific one.

Update:
“He” was fighting with the cockerel who’s highest in that pen among the other cockerels, is it a sign?

It can be, but it’s not a definite sign of anything.
