I don't think there are black brahmas in the states. Some people might be working on them, but hatcheries don't sell them. Look at the comb on those black birds. If it sticks up like a normal comb, that's called a single comb. Black birds with single combs and feathered feet/legs are either cochins or langshans. If it does have a more flat comb, it's either a rose comb or a pea comb. Pea combs have three rows from front to back, a little lumpy, with the middle row usually being higher than the other two. Rose combs are more flat, with just a point at the back on young chickens. The older they get, the more bumpy they get all over.
If it does have a rose or pea comb, and feathered feet/legs, you've got a rarity in the US. Brahmas have pea combs. I don't know of any black feather-legged birds in the states with a rose comb.
