Hi all! I thought I'd join in too, if that's okay. I have two bantam roosters, Rudy and Speckles, one bantam hen named Lavender, and two bantam silkies (they don't count as bantam cochins, but they round out the small half of my flock.) I would LOVE it if anyone can tell me what the colorings for my one rooster is so that I can get some hens that same color. Here is Speckles:

Hello all.I was in tractor supply today. Started speaking g with a lady about bantam Cochran. I told her I just bought 2 brahma brown chicks because I found out they are sweet. She was advising me that the bantam Cochran are very sweet and like a ball of fluff. Will jump on your lap. I have a americana about 5 months old and white bantam. Do you think that brahma,s americana will get along with bantam cochran. I read that they could be bullied. I do not want that to happen. I believe the breeds I have are not aggressive.

Brahmas are sweet around people, my rooster picks on the hens when cooped up sometimes. (All bantams tho, even roo) my Cochins are very sweet balls of fluff, one of them comes running when I call her, and she is very nice about being on the top of the pecking order, her name is marshmallow, she's and angel <3. My other Cochin (from My Pet Chicken) has started viciously pecking everyone below her on the pecking order and she pecks at your hand when you try to get eggs from her. Other than that she's pretty nice.

Also, I put four eggs under my broody hen Marshmallow and they are going to hatch tomorrow or Saturday!

Oh my lord, she is beautiful. I have the 2 brown Brahma chicks, plus 4 chinchillas. 2 small dogs. My husband thinks two more just would be to luck for me. Oh plus a 5 month old americana, and a small white bantam. I raised the americana from a chick she folks me like a dog. In matter of a fact, I think they listen better then my dogs, my miniature shitzu is 9 years old and I have to keep him separated from the chickens I think he would try to hurt them. My 6 year old chiwawa dog does not bother them at all. Maybe we will change our minds and buy a couple of the bantams. But thank you for your input.

One of them has hatched!
