More cockerels from that pairing. There are 22 left (with a few pullets in there), and all have the same coloring (minus the leakage on the pullets), right down to the gray skin.
My Cochin roo. Both black cockerels are from the same cross, though I have one bearded Silkie hen and one non bearded Silkie hen. The Cochin in my only roo. The only other adults I have are a Delaware hen and the d'Uccle hen in this pic (one of the Silkies all the way in the back, too).
Sorry...
Couple of cockerels from my black Silkie hens x red Cochin rooster, about 4 months old now. And a cockerel from my Delaware hen x Cochin roo attempting a photobomb on the right in the second pic...
Age is just a general guess as I did a continuous hatch. They hatched between November 28th and December 30th. The five babies my Silkies hatched were a couple days later.
I hatched about 32 Silkie x Cochin babies this winter (along with Delaware x Cochin and d'Uccle x Cochins). I have 22 Silkie mixes left, and I can clearly tell a lot of them are roosters. Some have some really pretty feathers coming in, too.
The Silkies actually hatched one of the Silkie mixes...
