Mille Cochin Info

[thecochincoop]

I have kaleidoscope youngsters for sale that would be extremely useful in a blue mille fleur project!!!
heres pics of some of my babies from this year and available birds are on my site or FB album

blue mille fleur pullet

beautiful chevrons in the cushion

i would call this either a blue mille or blue spangled, time will tell i guess

Here's a couple cockerels from Spring 2011. The color is quite a step forward. Alot of breast color, more red in hackles than black though the better shaped one has a dark hackle. Will be pairing them up to well shaped split hens & pure MFC hens to continue the needed improvement of body type.

I agree!!!! IF I lived close enough I would give an arm and a leg for them.

Shylee, wow.. very nice. I love this time of year. This is what we've all been waiting for to see our growouts begin to take shape and see the progress we made. So happy for you.

I would really be interested in eggs in the spring if they are available. We are suppose to move the end of November hopefully to Texas so I can't get any extra birds for now. I am still trying to figure out how to bring my MFC's almost 3000 miles.
