Hi all!
My Cochin pullet appeared with this hurt beak when we came back from a trip. What happened? Is there anythIng I can do to help her? She is still eating and drinking to my knowledge, I just want her to be okay.
Good morning everyone,
I bought two young bantam cochins at the Ohio National a few weeks ago. I brought them home, and put them in quarantine. After a day, both had a sneeze and very light gurgling when breathing. I immediately treated them with All-in-One powder, which treats multiple...
I have a barred Cochin roo and a buff silkie hen. What will the outcome of their chicks be? They just happen to be each other favorites and they get along extremely well.
I feel like I’m posting on this topic way more than I should 🤦♀️ I have four newbies, one blue red laced Wyandotte, one lavender Cochin, one lavender Orpington, and one salmon favorolle. They are four months old, I put the Wyandotte in a local poultry show as a pullet, and they said she was a...
Hello!
I have a very stubborn broody hen. She went broody a little over a week ago and is not responding to any breaking techniques. I have her in a cage in the AC with no bedding; she just sits on the bottom, brooding. I put ice under her, she just melted it. A few days ago she started...

I got sucked into the chicken craze by being around some cuties for a while. ( I had some many many years ago when we first moved to Texas) I bought Cochin bantam chicks almost 2 years ago and have found that only one is a true Cochin bantam. The rooster has been identified as a Satin, I hadn’t...
Would this be a blue/calico? Got her as a chick so I don’t have the parents, I want to get more like this I have a blue cockerel would that be a recommended pair up ?
On Friday I picked up two bantam frizzle chicks. I got them at delivery so they were only 2-3 days old. Everything was fine and they were both active and eating until Saturday night where I noticed my yellow chick was having watery diarrhea. Since then she has not improved and is sleeping a lot...
Like the title says I'm looking to build a coop for 6 to 8 backyard chickens. My plan is to get lacr cochin so they'll be a bit bigger than average chickens.
Now long term.. I know we plan to move in 4 or more years so I was thinking of trying to make the coop able to be taken apart again down...
Does anyone know what I’ll get if I crossed a Lemon blue Cochin to a Blue Cochin. If I was to cross their offspring would I hatch out Lemon blue Cochins?
