    Male or female dark brahma?

    One bright side, I am not showing them and I am not breeding them. They will kept as pets, and for eggs. I do hope they have good health and the docile Brahma temperament. We'll just see, as you say.

    Male or female dark brahma?

    Well, the eggs were from a breeder, and advertised as "show quality." Here is a pic of their hens. Thanks for letting me know a molt may make the pullets look more uniform. :)

    Male or female dark brahma?

I can easily tell them apart, and I guess I thought all DB pullets would look identical. Do you think I will still be able to tell them...

    Male or female dark brahma?

    Ah ha! I had read that on a British forum and on an American blog, and I was convinced from that info that I have two fast-feathering females (shoulder feather, fluffy feet, long tails, long wings) and one male (slow to feather in all those areas, also the one that has the darker chest now)...

    Male or female dark brahma?

    Thanks! Two have pale, fluffy chests. One has a dark chest, more feathered. I'll keep an eye on them. I appreciate your reply.

    Male or female dark brahma?

    Hi! @Gray Farms - If I post pics of 3 1/2 week-old Dk Brahmas, do you think you might have some input? Or is that too young?

    Male or female dark brahma?

    I found this info, below, on a U.K. forum - the writer says she can determine the sex of her Dark Brahmas at one day old. Have you heard of this method? "I'm lucky that I can sex my dark chicks at day olds... my pullets hatch with dark wide triangle on top of their head and have eyeliner boys...
