Chick color, breed and gender

[Kagu]

also what is a marans cochin?? theres marans and there are cochins they are 2 different breeds

LOL, sorry, i meant Cuckoo cochin, not sure if that is the specific term, it might just be called barred

it will be barred but if it has vulture hocks i would be concerned that some weres in the background theres another breed in it that has vulture hocks though

i didnt mean they were SUPPOSED to be V/V, but they can have it, doesnt mean they should

 

[hdowden]

im just sayin i have never seen one with vulture hocks and if i did i would question the background of the chicken is all...i know that vulture hocks can sometimes appear in breeds that dont have them

 

[Kagu]

i never knew D'uccles were supposed to have the either

 

[hdowden]

i never knew D'uccles were supposed to have the either

yes d'uccles and sultans both are required to have vulture hocks if not its an atuomatic disquilification in any show. my self blue in my avatar has nice feathering all over BUT he's kinda cocky and will go after you

 

[Kagu]

LOl, exact oppisote for cochins, vulture hocks are a immediate disqualifaction

Okay thanks guys. I'm not breeding for show quality.

still a bit to young to tell its gender though
