Cochin Bantams and Frizzle Cochin Bantams!!

[Marthab1953]

Hi everyone! I'm new to Cochin bantams, these are my very first two

I was wondering if anyone could guess their ages? Or give me a rough idea on each.
They were both from the "assorted bantam pullets" bin at the feed store. They had lots of colors and sizes. I heard bantams are harder to sex as one day olds though so they may be either.
I live out in the country so I'd be happy with a roo, but still crossing my fingers for girls.

This is the bigger one, s/he has a missing patch of fluff on her head, the feed store actually gave her to me for free.


And this is the smaller one, s/he is really spunky, zips around and eats/drinks a lot faster then the other.

Beautiful little Buff Cochin's you have still to young to tell the sex, I would say little over a week by the youngest ones feather development.

Got my first egg today!!!! Can you tell between a bantam Cochin and silkie egg?! Trying to figure out who it came from. My chickens are 5.5 months old so I was a bit surprised I have an egg already!!!

Hi all! I got this sweetie (yellow/black in the front) in a mixed Bantam box. My guess is bantam Cochin? Any idea what color he/she will be as an adult?

My guess is Silkie. I have both and the silkie eggs are usually more oblong shaped.
