3 Month old Light Brahma Boy or Girl?*More and better pics*

[Missouri Maiden]

Sorry I couldn't get a better picture, he or she is very camera shy, but hopefully you'll be able to tell. I got five from Cackle and they were all supposed to be pullets but this one is bigger and has a bigger comb than the rest. I've never had brahmas before so I'm not so sure. I'm hoping for a roo so I can replace my old roo, that got killed by a coyote.

There is no black in the saddle area. That is a female. Are the other four colored the same.

Looks like a roo to me, comb and waddles pretty well colored and defined for a 3 month old. I have females with black in the saddle. If this is a hatchery bird, color is often a crap shoot.

Yes the other four are colored the same except that the bird in question has more black on the neck.

Can you post a photo of the tail. Looks like really good quality, especially for a hatchery bird.

Id say roo too.

From that picture of the comb, i'd say roo, but its all depending on your next photo of the tail..?

Ok I'll try to persuade it to stand still so I can get a shot be right back...
