Black Cochin?

[Nicole_Hutchison]

Can you help me determine the breed of my hen? Want to confirm she is in fact a black Cochin.

 

[Painted Calls]

Cochin mix. She has a modified pea comb and what appears to be a small beard.

 

[TheOddOneOut]

Agreed, mix

 

[Offshoreorca]

Yes, she is a mix.

 

[Nicole_Hutchison]

Any idea on what type of breed is mixed in with this Cochin mix?

Agreed, but dang she is cute.

Could be a number of different things. What color eggs does she lay?

I personally do not see the beard Mare sees, but if there is one she's probably either an EE or Ameraucana cross, depending on her egg color as well.

If she lays brown eggs and does not have a beard, she could perhaps be a brahma cross
