Oh wait, didn't I post any pictures?

2 chicks, both out of my rooster Sparky. 2 different types of barring.

I know you are not supposed to count your chickens before they hatch, but I have 12 Bantam Barred Buff Cochins in the incubator now and I am so excited! These will be my first cochins so I am actually doubly excited!!! I am a newby as I have only owned chickens for about a year and a half but we have show bunnies so I am applying what I know about color genetics from that and I have been studying cochin type and faults. I hope you guys don't mind a newbie joining in, and by the way, I love all these pics.

I'll be ordering some buff barred cochin bantams for the NYD hatch along. I just love cochins and I'm completely new to their genetics. I planned on focusing on the silver laced cochin bantams, but when I saw these guys, I knew I needed some buff barred as well. hahaha.

These are probably really stupid beginners questions, and I haven't had the time to read through all of the pages yet, but what do you guys use for improving type? and is the barring a dominant trait?
