Booted Bantam Thread

[Rhandi74]

this is my girl...i wish i could find a roo her color..

She is Beautiful!!!
What color is this?
I have a Cochin mix cockerel that is a similar color. I can not figure out what color it would be considered.

They have white ones and the other looks porcelan

So is this a booted bantam? or a cochin? or maybe mixed with both?.
He is hatchery quality from TSC.
I was advised he was a cochin from other BYC members when he was younger...but he started getting a tail not the round fluff my other cochins have. He is almost 7 months old now.
Thank you for the advice on color. This is not the cockerel I was talking about.
Here is the cochin mix I was talking about

I think you hit the nail on the head. He looks like a mix of cochin and booted banta. I actually love that shape and am planning on crossing the breeds once I have my rooster because I want them!

No, I will not be breeding them together, they are both roosters. The white and grey, not really sure what color he is, is very young and an LF. My broody hatched him out on 7/15. The lavender is a bantam and he is about 7 months old.
