The cochins are black, 3 cockerels, 1 pullet The OEGB's are 1 cockerel and 1 pullet. All were hatched March 8, 2022. I can't keep roosters no matter how docile or sweet. (all of the cochin cockerels are very sweet, the pullet is very shy and wants no part of humanity but is not mean about it, she just tries to get away) The OEGB's do not like to be caught but once you get them onto your hand/arm, love to be held 🤨.

This picture was taken a few weeks ago so they are bigger now and look like adults.

If I lived closer I would come and get the shy one... Would love to get learn her to trust the world around her
 
Thank you :) I was able to find a very good home for the cockerels and decided to keep the pullets if they can adjust to life without the boys. The person that adopted the boys is willing to take the girls if they don't adjust. I don't think her shyness has to do with not trusting the world around her, it's just her personality in general. They were spoiled, never mistreated, not even once and I always made sure that she was allowed access to food and water and if the others were not letting her eat, I gave her a bowl of food of her own to make sure that she ate. She's just more quiet and reserved than the others.
