So ten months old and they will do fine within the cockerel/pullet division but don't expect to win big with anyone less than two years old? Is this what everyone is saying? Sounds to me like these guys will be a little slower to mature than my LF Brahmas. I have two nine months old cockerels...
Thanks everyone. I was talking to someone about getting two dozen eggs in February/March but I'm thinking I should go earlier if they can. I want to show them at least at the Ohio Nationals next year if possible.
I posted this on the Cochin thread with a few bantam breeders trying to help me out. Are LF white Cochins like Brahmas in that they should be eight to ten months old before they are shown?
Yeah same thing is happening over here with my Brahmas. I put a light in on the 9th and out a crap ton of cayenne pepper in their feed. So far no eggs( it's been a few months ) but their pubic bones have widened up significantly.
What will the black and white cochins throw? I'm trying to learn every little thing I can before I get my white Cochin hatching eggs in February or March.
