Bantam Cochin Pairs

[Msbear]

Im trying to thin down the herd to get ready for hatching season. I have 4 cocks and 4 hens to choose from. Winning bid gets to choose 1 male and 1 female.

Thanks for looking.

cockerel #1 app. 8 months old.. has very little black

tail shot

cockerel#2 app. 6 months old has very little black.. more red mottled

cockerel #3 app. 7 months old has nice color .. no black on breast

roo #4 3 yr. old. NICE type Mottled x Buff Columbian cross ...got into scuffle with another roo but is healing nicely

Pullet #1 app. 7 month old ... a high white bird. She's got some nice fluff.. I almost kept her

Pullet #2 app. 8 months old and laying her second egg in this pic... and I think she's already considering going broody

after I tossed her out of the box

Pullet #3 & Pullet #4 are going to be harder decisions... Im gonna sleep on it

Here's some better shots of the two cockerels

Cockerel #2

and #3

These are both going to be super handsome boys! Im sure they will be head turners even if they aren't perfect for MF. Im having a difficult time parting with cockerel #3. He is just striking but, I can't keep them all. I am having major sleeplessness thinking about parting with more of the girls

I just can't do it right now... once I have my first batch of eggs in the bator, there are two that can head down the road... but not yet so, if anyone whom is bidding is upset by me not posting two more girls, I will not hold you to the bid...

I cannot do two pairs in the same box but, I can do three birds. If the winning bidder would like an extra roo, I can toss one in for and extra $10 shipping cost.

Very nice Msbear they have come a long way!

You always have the swap you can sell them at on the ones you can't let go of now.

I am going past Frederick to Ijamsville on Sunday- would love to meet you to buy a hen-is that possible?

 

[Msbear]

Hey Fattie, I have more boys than girls so, Im only selling pairs. Highest bidder gets their first pick. Then, I'll have one more pair and additionaly boys.

 

[Funky Feathers]

So could I get a pair? If I bid & win, can you meet me Sunday?

 

[Msbear]

Im about 40 min from Frederick. You are more than welcome to pick up if you'd like. OR, I can meet you in Middletown, MD... It's about 10 min. from Frederick...

Oh darn, hubby just reminded me we are going to be in such a rush, we won't have time to go off course. Dang, I wanted them, too.
