Fun Fact: In the 1800's Queen Victoria had some rather palatial fowl houses and a lovely collection of chickens - including the Cochin, and Sebrights. The Cochins have "royal" patronage!!
I *think* I may have hit a nerve??
Well now.. I will answer as honestly as I can... I have NO knowledge of a Cochin thread - so this means one of two things:
There is NO cochin thread because we don't need one **or**
There IS a cochin thread and they are better at keeping secrets than you lot 🎁
OMG.. I've just discovered this thread (catching up on morning reading) and I'm so laughing!
I'm afraid I'm going to have to throw my hat in for the Cochins - but I must disclose a bias because I've never had Orpingtons.
I mean - who doesn't love these adorable little fluff balls!!
