I purchased these guys when they were a few days old. Was told they were a mix of Cochin, Silkie and Serama.
With the gray roo, he has feathered feet a funky comb and has started growing a toupee looking bunch of feathers on top of his head.
The black chick is super tiny. Smaller than the...
Does anyone have silkie feathered bantam Cochins? I’m getting a pair (maybe a trio) in June, and I’m so excited! I absolutely love Cochins and the silkie feathers make them even more adorable imo. Anyone out there breed them? Just like them? Have pictures you want to share? I’m just excited...
Hi! I haven't had any for about 6 years since I moved from Washington state to Florida. Previously had a mixed flock of abt 5 layers. Currently living in the suburbs so truly looking for backyard chickens. I mainly want them for eggs, but dont need a ton, and because even though we live in a...
Hi fellow chicken lovers!
I have been doing some research on which is the best broody hens to add in my flocks. From what I been hearing, Silkies and Cochens are the top best broody breed. But I am concern with Silkies options, because there are some information about the hens being mean and...
Hi everyone!
I'm extremely worried about my eggs, they're all from my 6 month old Cochin Bantam, as soon as she layed I put the eggs in the incubator, it's day 7 for egg 1 and it's developing well, can see some movement too but their cell is on the pointed end. I Candled the rest too and my...
I live in Spartanburg, SC and I have a bantam blue cochin rooster who will not stop flogging my children and myself every time I turn around. I'm hoping someone has more patience, and can help him get better. I don't have the heart to cull him. I can't let my kids be afraid to come outside and I...
Hi! My name is Hayley, and I started my little flock last Spring. Right now I only have a flock of three. My 2 hens are: my ameraucana, Pie, and my Jersey black giant, Purpee. And I have this very mean rooster that I need help with.
He is a bantam blue cochin named Pepe, and he was the sweetest...
Have fallen in love with Mille Fleur bantam Cochins. Is anyone aware of a breeder who might sell teenager pullets or young hens (one or more)?
Grateful for suggestions!
I went out to collect eggs before the hens went to bed as we were at the beach all day.
I found a small egg in the nesting box and assumed that either Rusty or Tiny(Snow White) had laid their first egg but wasn't sure. I can easily recognize Mouse's(Silkie mix) eggs so I know it wasn't hers.
I...
Does anyone have any experience with a Bantam Cochin fertilizing their LF hens? I have a Mille Fleur bantam Cochin roo, and I’d love to hatch some little barnyard mixes just to expand my own flock. I’ve only had my roo for about two months, and although he tries to breed my hens, watching him I...
I am in the Keller/Fort Worth area. I am not sure on Gender of either. Hatched first week of April.
The black one is incredibly friendly and likes to be held. The Sultan is a little shy but is friend once caught.
Our favorite baby chicken is crowing. He is a little guy, and has been fine with all normal size hens. One his age, the rest three years old. I thought his cute personality was because he’s the first and only Bantam I’ve owned. All black with cute fuzzy feet. He is the first to get the bugs, and...
I have several bantam Cochin that I'm trying to figure out there colors. One is a rooster the other a hen.
I get splash or Columbian?
I'm at a loss please help.
i have a variety of chicks in a brooder under a heat lamp in my house right now. In an attempt to avoid a divorce I got another smaller chicken coop with an attached run and put it in my large chicken run with the rest of my adult birds and two ducks. I have a Brahma, Americauna, and a bantam...

The pictures got scattered..
Barred rock- 3 months old
Wyandotte- 1 month old
White Cochin bantam- 2 months old
light Brahma- 2 months old
i have a four week old bantam Cochin that I’m thinking is a rooster. The breeder has a rooster guarantee but I wanted to run it by you guys and see what you think before we take our sweet brownie for an exchange.
i got two chicks from a friend who got an order from Murray McMurray they were extra chicks so all i know is one is a cochin, it is supposed to be a blue but it seems like it might be a self blue aka lavender because of how light in color it is.
the second chick is supposed to be a silver...
I got a bunch of assorted bantams from tractor supply and these two appeared to be buff or red Cochins at first. Then their feathers started coming in and I don't think I've seen Cochins quite this color. They have feathered feet and what I think are called "vulture hocks"? Any ideas? Mille...
