Buff Cochin or buff Brahma????

[Vratnyjulez]

I inherited five baby chicks a couple of weeks ago four of them were barred rocks, and one of them was this one. I think it's a buff Cochin maybe a bantam but it could also be a buff Brahma. What are your thoughts? I have included a few pictures. She's very soft and very, very sweet. I have named her Caroline. She is about eight weeks old.

Single comb - most likely a Buff Cochin.

Agreed. She's so adorable and has the sweetest name!

Am not familiar with cochins.. we have some buff brahmas and this sweetie in the pic does not look like ours. She would have the black feathers at the neck just like the white brahmas do. And they have a pea comb... at first it grows out like two tiny combs side by side but when it is fully grown it is just a joined comb. They are smaller than other combs and dont get floppy and are usually at a low risk of frost bite to their combs. Your girl is adorable.. keep loving on her it is good for both of you!
