Redwing Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 Hi Peter, chickens can start crowing from 9 weeks but pure breed like your Brahma may take longer especially the really big chickens are slower to mature in general Griffin and Janty on here both have Brahmas so hopefully one of them or someone else suitably knowledgable will be along soon to help Welcome to the forum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Griffin Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 I was lucky enough that my four Gold Brahma chicks were all girls so crowing wasn't an issue They are a very slow maturing breed, taking up to two years so I'd imagine you'd get to at least six months without crowing.

Snowy Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 I think brahma cockerels have very different colouring to the females, at least in some colourways. Any photos? We are good at cockerel spotting here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted August 27, 2009 Share Posted August 27, 2009 I had two brahma cockerels when I first started and didn't know about the colouring. Mine were about six or seven months old when I rehomed them and they still hadn't crowed but they were getting very amorous with my other girls. Can you post pictures?
