I have five 3 week old Cochin chicks. I noticed four of them are getting feathers super fast and one isn't much at all. I had read often females get their feathers first and males are slower. Is that true with Cochins? If so, I got really lucky! I'll attach some pictures. The first 2 pictures are of the same chick with the short feathers.

Comb, & wattle growth is what you want to look for on cochins.
 
Repost updated pictures in about 3 weeks. Cockerels should be showing their color by then.
