The Bramha was first imported to Europe from North America in 1852, initially known as ‘Chittagong’ or ‘Shanghai’ – it was later referred to as the ‘Bramha’. Bramhas are beautiful graceful birds and a firm favourite of mine. Although large, they are very docile and tolerant which make them ideal for children to handle. Due to their build they are not at all flighty. Hens are easy and reliable broodies, looking after their offspring excellently. They are slow to mature, taking 12-18 months to reach adulthood – but the wait is definitely worthwhile!!

I currently breed Gold, Blue Partridge, and Dark.

Eggs: 180-200 per year
