I’ve been watching my bantam Cochins and noticed a significant difference in the way the Milli Fluer carries her wings compared to the porcelain. I tried to get a picture of the wings and noticed it doesn’t “fan” like the other. I have 4 that their wings look the same. 😢
Thank you so much for the feedback! I have fallen in love with this breed. I started with a rooster 2 years ago, he protected his ladies and lost the battle. Since then I’ve been researching and piecing together what is/is not. What I have discovered is there are many different perspectives...
Thank you for the invite to this group.
Mom was a Blue Calico
Dad was a Blue Mille Fleur
From what I’m reading Blue is not part of the Mille Fleur color pattern. I appreciate any feedback
I have 3 Mille Fleur Bantam Cochin Roosters. I am new to this breed. The younger 2 have green tail feathers. I do have a younger hen, her feathers lean towards the almost all black rooster, but as she grows she is getting more brown and white in the layering. Do they have good markings for...
Yes she is
I added a photo so you can see how drastic the size difference is. All of them are 3 weeks old. 3 Mille Fleur Cochin Bantams, 2 lavender Americaunas, 1 lavender Orpington, and Little foot
Sometimes she seems more lazy than the rest, but wakes up, starts peeping, eating, and drinking. She has always been more talkative than the rest. Is there something I should be looking for? I’ve never had a sick chick
We have named this one Little Foot, it is 3-4 weeks old. Only reason I can validate the age is because I purchased it on May 22 as a Lavender Brahma. 3 weeks later and this little chick is growing really slow compared to the others. It leaves me to believe this is a bantam or it is a runt...
Oh MY GOODNESS!! This is the forum i’ve been hoping for!! Seriously, i never knew i would love chickens like i do, but here i am owning it. Thank you for the warm welcome and answering questions🤗
We purchased a home 2 years ago that had chickens (hens no rooster) and a coop. We knew nothing about chickens, thankfully the owner left books behind for us to at least have some sort of information, google became our best friend.
We have 5 chicks 8-9 weeks old and do not know how to sex...
