Cochin Bantams and Frizzle Cochin Bantams!!

Love her!!

I got my first Bantam Cochins this spring and so far am finding them to be super sweet and gentle. Is this pretty normal of the breed. One of the hens I carry around with me sometimes and she is perfectly content being held. Even my young rooster seems this way.

Frizzles can't fly. Their feathering is so broken that they get no lift. Mine can hop onto low perches and I ladder them so they can get up a little ways but avoid letting them get very high because if they try to fly down they hurt themselves because they can't break their fall with their wings.

Thank you SOOOO much!!!!! I've been putting her out of the henhouse; I'll have to figure out laddering for her.

Can anyone sex these cochin or tell what color they are? They are 7...ish week bantams.

I was thinking 1 is a mottled boy because it is taking forever for it to feather out

#2

2 maybe, gold laced or partridge girl?

Thanks

Brahmas have a different comb. Google it and you will see.
