Bantam Cochin thread

Thank you!

Usually here hens stop laying in mid-november, then restart in mid-january.


Thank you!

I see you live in italy/slovenia. I lived in trieste till 2009 for a few years.

Oh wow! That's awesome!
I think the city it's a bit chaotic (and it's still considered a small one, I can't imagine a big city like Rome or London or New York)But when you get out, in the towns of the countryside with all the woods and fields around them... That's the places I love

you are absolutely right. I lived in london, rome and athens as well. never again. I am stuck on an island near athens but hope to move soon to my new place in the country. I have to sell my house first and I am waiting for the prices to rise. everything is more expensive than before covid horror so I cannot remain without house and without enough money to finish my new house and build chicken coops and a few other things.

Here’s my lazy girl Basil! She’s definitely a favorite in my little flock <3

here she is with her friend!

Fluff butt!

I present to thee, CrazyCochin's, well, crazy bantam Cochins!
Holly, Bootsie's mother, and currently broody. (Feel free to ask about who Bootsie is if you don't already know! )

Hylia, (named after the white goddess in Legend of Zelda), also broody!

And Red, the head of the Bantam Cochin flock, with all his girls!

(Yes, he does have a white foot feather, as seen in the next photo)

I had them in a large dog crate with the gate open so I could keep them in one central spot in order to get the photos. Because those Cochins are fast!

I know this thread hasn't been active for a while but why hasn't it been? Little bantam cochins are the best!

Here's my little bantam cochin (mille fleur frizzle) called Thor.

I love Thor so much.

I don't know why, either! I guess I kind of lost track of it for a bit there!

Anyway, here's my newest little bantam Cochin, a silkied Black who hatched on Easter weekend out of eggs from my own flock

I'm planning to set some more from my flocks to test fertility once this little one is a bit older and can safely move outside to the coop before the new chicks would hatch.
