Gold Brahmas (Bantams)

Brahmas arrived in the UK around 1840-1850. The name Brahma comes from the river Brahmaputra in India although the species was created in America from large feather legged birds known as Shanghais which were imported from China in the 1840. Brahmas are very docile birds who make good reliable broodies. Their feathering is beautiful and they are very elegant birds.

Gold Brahmas are most commonly kept as Large Fowl and the bantam variety which we keep are much rarer. This fancy breed of chicken makes a great pet for its quiet and tame nature, tolerance to the cold, huggability and sheer chic-ness! To check current availability, please check our shop page
