Was thinking of ordering some birchen and barred Cochin bantams.
In theory it would give a barred bird with white hackle.
Surely someone has done this cross
According to the chicken calculator it is possible to make a barred birchen color.
Has anyone tried this and do you have pictures?
I think the hens and roosters should be beautiful with the silver neck hackle and saddle with the bulk of the body being barred.
Looking for photos of Mottled Cochin bantams from hatcheries like Ideal and McMurray. I do not need show quality but want birds with decent form and lots of white mottling.
Thanks in advance.
I am thinking of getting some cochin bantams next spring. Probably blues and mottled. I do not need show quality stock, but want birds with decent type and lot of white mottling.
Does anyone have any pics of mottled cochin bantams from various hatcheries? Like Ideal? McMurray? Thanks in...
