Cochin chick question?

[SilkieCRZYness]

I have a black rooster, and two females, one is black and one is white. The black hen went broody and hatched a baby and it is yellow, now she was laying on several eggs as i have other hens in the house to, but it has feathers on its hocks and feet so im pretty sure it is a cochin. Which hen did this come from? and is it a buff? thanks

Also if anyone can give me the possible colors i can get from this trio i would love to know thanks again

wish I knew. My little cochins were very color distinctive...the splash was light ble and teh red was light red. Sounds cute. Can you post a picture?

 

[SilkieCRZYness]

hopefully that works hahaha

my gosh that is big ill try to resize it. this next picture is of daddy, hes in the light and his down feathers make him look like he could be a blue, but i dont think he is, hes normally all black just the sunlight i believe. and the chick hasnt really come out yet so thats the best i can do but its all yellow with a few darker yellow areas on its back and has feathers on its feet thats all i know.

could be anything with white as it'a an epistatic gene..

so what your saying is it was from my white hen then any color can come from my black roo and white hen? i looked at pics of cochin babies and this chick in my opinion resembles a buff. can i ever get a blue or say a slash from this trio ever? thanks again

 

[nzpouter]

blue possibly, splash no.

so probably the only colors i will ever get between these three will be, black, white, buff and blue? any others or does that about rap it up. thanks again

doubt you'll get a buff (clean one that is), you can also get columbian, barred, or mottle if the 2 of them carries the gene.

hmmm so far every color you have suggested i can get is not a yellow chick, even the white i guess a lighter color than mine as a chick. only thing yellow is a buff. maybe its a buff mix or something. Do you know what yellow cochin chicks turn out to be? also this could be a mix from another hen to that im not even considering. i wonder what a black cochin roo would make with some of my other hens, barred rock, two red stars/comets, thats all that he mates with from my flock.
