No. This is not a recognized color (by APA or ABA) in Cochins.

Unless for some reason a specific change for Cochins would be requested if/when they are submitted for ABA recognition, they should be bred to the ABA Standard for Mille Fleur Plumage. It can be found on page 230 of the current (2006) ABA Bantam Standard. (It is the same Mille Fleur standard that d'Uccles, etc. also use.)

Okay, great, thank you, that's exactly what I wanted to know. What about Calico, is that a recognized color (or a working standard) for any breeds?

There is no "Calico Plumage" in the ABA Standard - can't speak to the APA SOP. So if you were to enter a bird in a show as a "Calico", the judges would have no criteria to judge it to.

I'm sure you can tell by my questions I'm a newbie. Guess I had better purchase an ABA Standard in Indy! Is there a process in the ABA Std. as to how one might go about getting a color recognized?
