Are Cochins supposed to be different?

Cochins have a LOT more leg feathering, and they have single combs. From the side a good cochins shape will look like a ball.

Anyone know anything about who has Dan Powell's lavender laced brahmas? I wouldn't be able to get any now but I'd like to get in contact with someone who has them so I could get some eggs or something in the future. Thanks

I don't know anything.

Oh, thats too bad, I take doctor prescribed brain pills. I could sell you some...

I'm just OCD on Brahmas. I was beaten by a Cochin this past weekend. I can take that. I've never been beaten by a silkie, so far. Not sure how I would deal with that???

Hi all,
Is there any way at all that these guys are going to end up being dark brahma or are they a mix?

BLOG TIPS: Here are some blog tips to think about when visiting blogs and forums...

BLOG TIP #1 Next time you read a blog, and the information seems to be a lot more advanced than the experience of the blogger, leave a post challenging where the information came from! Do yourself and other readers a favor!

BLOG TIP #2 Would you trust an "expert" that is afraid to make their name public? Why are they afraid to make their name public? If this is the case, leave a post on the blog asking why the name is not being made public. Ask them what they are afraid of.

BLOG TIP #3 EATING TWINKIES PREVENTS CANCER! Yep, I said it, so it must be true! I eat a Twinkie every day, and I don't have cancer, so Twinkies must prevent cancer! Sounds silly right? Well, posting that pumpkin seeds prevents worms in chickens because your chickens eat pumpkin seeds and don't have worms is just as silly, right? This is a prime example of reader beware when visiting blogs and forums.

I read this on another forum and thought it might be appropriate here.

Tim? Oh great brahma guru? See pics? Will these chicks magicly turn into dark brahma?

 

[Tim63]

They look like my Dark Brahmas do when they are chicks. As far as I can tell they are in fact dark brahmas.

I would be a little suspect of the light leg/foot feathering, might be crossed.
