What do I have?

[Certified Chicken Lover]

So a family friend told me she had pure bred dark Brahma chicks and I of course decided I needed some! When I went to pick them up though this is what I got… I’m no expert on Brahmas but I’m pretty sure
These aren’t dark Brahma chicks! I know because they are young it’s hard to tell breeds yet but do y’all have any idea of what they could be?

Does it have a single comb?

Could you get pictures of the comb?

They don’t really have a comb yet but here’s a pic

Looks like a brahma to me. Your friend might have confused dark brahma with black brahma

That is a tiny little pea comb (correct comb type for a Brahma.)

It looks like a brahma
Maybe a black brahma as others said

Okay but there is no chance that these are dark Brahmas right? I don’t want to give them away and then find out they turned out to be something else

Why would you give them away?
