Cochin bantams?

[shessowitte]

I thought these 5 week old chicks were cochin bantams, but then I read a thread that said all cochins have yellow legs. These two both have dark legs, and one looks like it may be a frizzle. Both are supposed to be pullets. Thank you in advance for any input.

Maybe their a a large fowl feathered Cochin,my bantam Cochin legs were not the long nor that color.

Yeah, I don't know what ey are, probably crosses.

I purchased the Ornamental Layer assortment from Murray McMurray, so they shouldn’t be a cross based on their description.

Any chance they could be Belgian D’Uccle? Porcelain or white maybe?

They are probably just badly bred Cochins, since they are from a hatchery.

Thank you for the input. I’m ok with less than show quality chickens. I want to have fresh eggs and fluffy friends, so it’s all good.
