Calico Cochin bantam

[Thiccen]

I made a thread about cochin bantam chick development!! I have Calico chicks as well. Maybe it can help you.

I also think it's a boy though, I had 5 chicks with combs that big and 4 of them were boys. My mostly white calico hen was born white with a bit of brown on the back. My mille fleur ish cochin was born light patridge

Thank you for the reply! This is very helpful! Tofu really does look a lot like your white calico chick sHe also looks a lot like the roosters… hopefully I have a handsome hen but I can definitely see that the comb is a little too big and red

I wanted to give an update on her(?) colors since shes now 6 weeks old and has feathered a but more, no comb or wattle growth and the color seems to be the same orangy on the sides of the comb and pink wattle stubs. Also included the silly photo at the end haha shes yawning nit crowing

They look a lot like my Clover did at that age, so don’t give up on getting a pullet! I was so sure mine was a boy. Wrong! You’ll know for certain in a few more weeks.
