What bantam Cochin colors are your favorites? Do they come in any colors that aren't accepted in a show? I'm thinking about getting some bantam Cochins in the spring and am trying to decide what color to start on. I want a color that isn't too hard to find.

P.S. If anyone has any pictures of their favorite colors, that would be helpful too!

My favorites are blue and splash. I do not think I have any pics on the computer any more of my birds, though.

My favorites are black, white and blue. In my opinion black is the easiest color to raise with white being a close second. When your dealing with some feather patterns in many of the varieties it can be a challange, but definitely rewarding when you get it right! I've always loved the Columbian variety, Tom Roebuck has beautiful Columbians along with awesome Barreds!!
