Bantam Cochin thread

Thought I'd bump this thread up again with some babies! I have a hatch going on right now of silkied Cochin bantams. Two out so far, and they both appear to be Blue!! :love :love :love

Can anyone tell me the color of my cochin bantam? He is a little over 6 weeks. I just love him and now looking to buy more cochins. Also, is there any particular colors that I should look for in a female that would make pretty colored babies with him? I really like the blue ones I've seen.

Yup, he's a Splash! The best colors to get to cross to him if you want to keep colors pure are Blue, Black, or another Splash.

With a Splash hen, he'll only produce Splash offspring.

With a Blue hen, he'll produce Blue and Splash offspring in even amounts.

With a Black hen, he'll produce only Blue offspring.

If you like Blues, I'd say your best bet is to just get yourself some Blue hens for him! 😊

That is very helpful. Thank you. I will be going Thursday to pick out a few cochins. Crossing my fingers for blues. 🤞😁
