We have two Blue Splash Cochins that are 4.5-5 weeks old. I am totally stumped by their combs. Dandelion's is a bit pinker and thicker but they are about the same height. Dandelion was the tiniest baby until a week or so ago (now I know where the food has gone!). S/he is feathering slower than Sharky (my 3 yo named her....) and is close to twice the size (used to be significantly smaller). Dandelion is very feathered on its feet while Sharky has a few on its legs. They were picked up from a local breeder/hatchery. They are feathering out a LOT slower than my Black Australorps who are the same age. Thanks!!

Sharky. S/he is independent and always has been. She reminds me of our Barred Rock pullet...
