BANTAM COCHINS CLUB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Does the black one have brown? If not then black.
The lighter one looks like maybe wheaten...? Or maybe buff laced. The colors will become clear as they get older.

Yes the black one has quite a bit of brown.

Hmmm, the only black and brown kind of cochins I know of is when someone crosses a mottled Cochin with a buff/red cochin

Game time! Pullet or roo? Wanting to get closer to this one but worried. 4 weeks old now.

also, does it still look like a silver laced?

my Guess : Pullet Look @ Feet are they THICKER, with my different chicks the Ones who had thicker legs were Boys.....

 

[poppycock1974]

I only have this one so I'm not sure how to compare their feet. It's legs seem thicker than my Seabright but I'm not sure if that's because of the different breed or not

I'm Still thinking Pullet, also because of small crown & no waddles. LoL for me, Seabrights are all look like females. till crowing age.

Chickens area Flock pet, they Need companionship of other chickens...

I currently have 6 bantams all 4 weeks old and 4 laying hens. This is my first set of bantys and only one Cochin but I hear different things about sexing them. I am keepin all til the notorious crow begins then those guys will have to be re homed due to area restrictions.

Has anyone had their pullets develop fast?? I have three big combed big wattled and red obvious boys and what I thought were a bunch of girls. Now a chunk of my girls are getting reddish wattles but nothing much different to their small combs.. I think the age range is 5-6 weeks now...

I have a 5-6 week old Pullet and cockerel. The Pullet has small red wattles and a smaller pinkish comb. The cockerels comb and wattles are bright red.
I have some other chicks that are about 3 weeks old and one of the cockerels comb looks like the six week old pullets. The 3 week pullets still have yellow combs.

Good to hear, I have a little girl at 5 weeks that has a pinkish comb and wattles now but a tiny comb. Her development has been nothing like the Roos that went bright red in a week at different times. My other breeds didn't go pink til much later if they were girls so I was a little worried but her comb hasn't changed in size at all and other than pinking up she is not getting red like the boys.
