My little Cochin stands on one leg and keeps the other elevated as if it hurts to stretch it our or put weight on it. She has done this from the start. she will stretch it out to walk but quickly brings it up to her side. She is supposed to be a giant cochin, but she has not grown at all. My other 3 are Americaunas and they grow more each day! Baby-Baby, the cochin is feathering, but hasn't changed size. I think she is really a Bantam.
