Hello, Inhave a Buff Cochin Roo that I possibly need to rehome. He is a nice looking dude.
He just needs ladies that are around the same size, all my girls are going to be to small for him. He’ll be 18 weeks on Tuesday. I just don’t want to take the chance he’ll hurt my girls. (Red and black sex...
I'm pretty sure this is a roo. Out of all 4 of my cochin bantams this is the only one that has developed a wattle and has a larger comb! Is it common for bantams to start showing those signs this early? (3 weeks old)
First 2 pics is our suspected roo.
The others I think are hens. Maybe too...
This is the first time I’ve encountered a broody hen. Her name is FooFoo and she’s a Cochin. About 14 months old. Right now, she’s sitting on golf balls. We don’t have any fertilized eggs.
I’ve read about it being important to “break” broodiness, but as a natural process in the chicken’s...

I have 4 birds from tsc. Only the silkie is named(volta). They're all from the bantam mix tsc sells. Once they finish feathering I was planning on getting them introduced to my coop. The sooner the better as currently I just have a pair. As they are getting closer tho I feel like I should...
This is a little Cochin chick I got today. The dad is lavender and looks to have the isabella partridge markings. Mom looks to be a silver laced cochin (maybe silver partridge? I have a hard time telling since some partridges I've seen have lacing and others don't) - just googled it actually and...
This is my first post, but I feel like I've been part of many threads, some from like 10 years ago or more, lol. I'm not new to chickens, but I am new to bantams! I finally talked my SO into helping me construct a little Bantam Village so that they can be more protected than our free rangers...
We have 4 Cochin chicks total, all 5 wks old, two mottled and a blue and a lavender. The blue is 100% a roo, biggest comb I’ve ever seen on a 5 wk old, and the lavender I suspect might be a roo too but has a significantly smaller comb than the blue. The 2 mottled (identical to the one in the...
I purchased these birds from someone and they said the stock came form a show breeder in North Carolina. I was told that they were a year. Old but the hen isn’t laying yet, I drove an hour to buy them at a decent price so I didn’t question it. But. When that is one and hasn’t laid yet...
Good morning BYC fam!
I have something I thought I might run by y'all in case I'm missing something. I have a lovely White Cochin named GoGo Boots, sweet as she could be.
When GoGo was a few days old, she got real sick, but I was able to nurse her back to health with egg and...
Hello I keep a small assorted flock of Cochin bantams. I am very interested in adding some colombian Cochin bantams to my flock. I can’t seem to find any on eBay or locally. None at any hatcheries either. I’d love to get in contact with a breeder of possible. Thanks everyone!
I see this is a fairly common question, but I've got a picture and anyone with more experience is welcome to school me! I'm leaning toward Brahma because of the big eyebrows, but I'm not sure if that's a pea-comb or not? Also the coloring seems lighter than I see on most...
I've been raising...
So for right now I am getting back into chickens since I had my baby. I’m getting basic breeds for pets/ eggs. I also wanted some hatching eggs or chicks for showing as my child got older. I always wanted to show chickens since I was a little girl and raised chickens for years. I don’t know...
Not for culling/meat please!
All I want for my rooster boys is a nice safe home where they have a coop and run or space to roam. Won't attack people and have some free range experience. They go to bed in a coop with run at night. Born May last year.
Mixed breed! Some have cheek fluff and...
Hi everyone, i have a feeling my 3 week old chick has eye problems? Not sure if its normal behavior or not cause i have never raised a chick like this (a lone chick imprinted to me). He/she (i will call it her for now, even though i think she might be a he) gets startled easily, if something...
