    Spurred eye please help!

    This Cochin rooster got in a fight with another one (escaped his pen) and that resulted in his eye getting inquired and now I think infected? There is no pus, but it has a smell. This happened 4 days ago and he hasn’t open his eye. I’ve cleaned out with vetricyn eye wash and have put termycian...

    What color?

    So I am breeding Cochin bantams and I have four bantams. I have two buff hens and two red roosters. What would their offspring coloring be? I have their eggs in the incubator so I am just trying to get ready and predict their coloring.

    So I have this one chicken, she's a Cochin Bantam, and she's from Tractor Supply, and I was looking at her feet and she's missing a toenail. What does that mean?

    What colour is my Pekin/Cochin Bantam Rooster?

    Hi Everyone, I am curious what colour my 7 month old rooster could throw to his offspring. I was told he is a Cuckoo but I'm not sure if that means blue/black base colour or how it all works when it comes to Cuckoo/Barred in a Pekin. Thank you!

    Cochin bantam male or female?

    This is my only Cochin bantam and I’ve been waiting and waiting to see if it would lay an egg or if it would crow or start acting roosterish but it hasn’t. It’s been of age to do either or but my other rooster hasn’t been aggressive towards it or tried to mate with it. Any guesses if this is a...

    Any idea what breed this is?

    so this is Husk. She’s about 17 weeks old now and I still have no clue what she is. Her sisters are clearly a serama and a cochin, but husk looks like neither. Any ideas? Her wattles are tiny compared to the other two, her comb is small and black. Eyes are very dark, long legs but not too long...

    Blue Cochin bantam- cockerels or pullets?

    These guys hatched out 4/29/24or a few days before. So they’re going on 4 weeks old. Do you think these look like roos? Or is it too soon?

    Broody hen lying down a lot

    Hello! I have a 10 month old Cochin bantam (my problem chicken) who went broody back in January and hatched some eggs in February, as I had a really hard time trying to get her un- broody. I just gave up and gave her some eggs. Anyway, she is apparently ready to go broody again and is...

    Guys or gals?

    Hello! I have a few 10 1/2 week old chicks and I’d like to know what I’ve got. I have one serama, who I believe is a little lady. One bantam Cochin. My other girl Cochins got red very early on, so I’m hoping this is the case. And a mystery chicken ( any idea what it is?)

    how many generations too see the color I’m looking for?

    Can I get the outcome I’m looking for in the 2nd year of breeding? If I were to breed a blue to a mottled what should I look for in the offspring? my other question would be if I were to breed the brother and sister would I get blue mottled chicks from them?

I know my local tractor supply receive them on that Thursday so they’re like three weeks and two days old the two blackish ones are supposedly blue Australorps, but they look to me how my plymouth barred rock looked, so now I’m confused did they mess...
