Cochin or Brahma?

[Kjm279]

If she’s still pretty young, I’d say Cochin. If not, she doesn’t seem fluffy enough to be Cochin.

Well, maybe a mixed breed, just not built like a Cochin and tail is all wrong, but still, could be hatchery quality, I guess. Otherwise, I would say a cross between the 2..

You have better eyes than I do, that's for sure! Yes, with that yellowish color in the toes, I'd say Cochin, too.

I kinda cheated. I had to copy and paste and zoom way in to see her toes.

That's not cheating-- that's taking extra pains to give the original poster the right information. Good job!

If that’s a Cochin then it’s not a purebred. She is way to lean and sleek to be a purebred Cochin.

She honestly looks similar to my Cochin white leghorn crosses.

So I doubt she is a purebred.

However, since I can’t see her feet very well can you tell me if her middle toe has feathering?

When dealing with hatchery birds you get what you get. Your right, her body type doesn't fit the Cochin standard.

 

[Birds of a Feather]

Cochins don't have long tail feathers like that.

 

[Seaecho]

Also, Cochins are very stout, low to the ground, and extremely fluffy. She is not any of that. I also vote a cross, but not sure WHAT cross.

 

[Outpost JWB]

Definitely a White Cochin... Light Brahmas have a pea comb and are White and black...White Cochins have a single comb are are just White

hatchery quality cochin or cochin mix, or a dozen other things
