Love Cochins!

Pros: Friendly, curious, easily handled, adorable

Cons: Slow maturing

My large fowl Cochins are, by far, my favorite breed. They are always the first to greet me and hop up in my lap for a pet. My rooster is a quiet, gentle giant. I would recommend Cochins to first time chicken keepers and those with children because they are so easy going. They are quite slow to grow though, their only drawback in my opinion.

I second that I love my cochins. I would love to get another giant buff or white cochin. I got some giant black cochins from a feed store and they are just not the same as my other buff cochin, rounder was a princess wanted to be hand fed and held, these others are standofish and bite when I try to take there eggs. rounder was more like my dog than a chicken....
