Cochin Bantams and Frizzle Cochin Bantams!!

[bhj123]

Its how I started! Now I have approx 70 birds in my coop! LOL And the best part is ya can get any color you want! I did get a lot from Roslyn Pickens of Lucky Pickens in AK. She has some wonderful birds and I have gotten great hatch rates from her. I use her birds as the foundation of my program and then add other bloodlines with better quality to better my chicks. I have been very happy and cant wait till next spring to see what my new chicks I produce will look like!












I even do this with my iris flowers too. I buy from Nebraska a lot and my #'s are in the thousands! L

She could be one of my own or from lucky Pickens.
She hatched out last year. I had 18 Pickens eggs and 42 of mine that hatched out at the same time.

Not really. I only kept a handful... The rest sold.
I hatched out about 200 chicks this spring. All by my hens too. I own a bator... Just don't use it unless of an emergency.

I always have a huge waiting list for chicks in the spring.

If it were a cat, I would call it Calico but I wasn't sure if that is a recognized chicken color. I posted a thread and got a response that said it was considered Tolblont (sp) possibly.
