Crossing the Road
Would crossing the Brahmas with NN make them more heat tolerant?Please, please, please....if you cross your Brahma with NNs, post TONS of photos! This is one of the combinations I've been seriously considering for some time, but I'm just not in a position to bring in yet another breed right now until I cull down the flocks I have. I absolutely love big, big birds, but I've also been reluctant to raise any Brahmas here because of the intense summer heat. I truly don't want to suffocate the poor things. It's been hard enough on my Bielefelders, the three of which I still have are now three years old and STILL require extra attention in the summer. Maybe in a few more years when I've finally set up a proper micro-climate on my property I'll be in a position to consider Brahmas, but until then I would relish the opportunity to live vicariously through you.
