Yes, I'll never get bored of seeing pics of them.

Sorry, forgot to add pics of my Red frizzle male. I have forgotten to take pics many times, and today he looked really nice fresh out of his moult. As you can see, he isnt exactly what you would call a great example of a frizzle Cochin, but its a start in the right direction with my Red project.

The lack of leg and foot feathering on the male is not good. Please read the Breed standard. If you don't have a copy go to the Cochin International website and click on the heading Breed Standards at the top of the page. You can then make an informed decision for yourself.

Try putting his picture side by side with a show quality roo picture and you can kind of judge what you're looking for that way too~

I pretty much across the board don't like Frizzles, only seen two before now that I likes, but this guy is GORGEOUS!

I think it's safe to say that you've got your Frizzle program down pat. I know your other birds are beautiful also, but this guy just looks like he's got it all.

It came to me that every time I lose a dog, they take a piece of my heart with them, and every new dog who comes into my life, gifts me with a piece of theirs. If I live long enough, all the components of my heart will be dog, and I will become as generous and loving as they are."  - Cheryl Zuccaro
