Still have a ways to go, but these juveniles are now 3/4 Cochin...

I believe it is a cross to a LF brahma . And I believe the color being worked on is white laced red. Pretty color !! Nice BIG birds

My white bantam cochin pullet just laid her first egg at exactly 18 weeks to the day! Isn't that kinda early? It was a perfect little egg too. No first time oddballs for Sophia!

Hi, congrats about her first egg

just wondering at what age I can sex my little pekin chick (Pekins are pretty much the same as bantam cochins)
He / She has just turned 5 weeks old so I should be able to tell but I only hatched one pekin in this hatch so have no comparison,
I think it could be a girl---










Also, I'm selling one of this chicks older brothers, Should I be calling them Blue Pekins or Lavender Pekins?

 

[CochinBrahmaLover]

Looks girly.

As for color they look lavender to me but the experts may say otherwise

And you can sell them as cochins, pekins are the same breed, pretty much like a gypsy vanner is the same a irish cob, just 2 different names (i think..

) and just pekins are pekins and cochins are LF or bantams but you can call banties pekins


Cute little chick any wise

As Meredith is in the UK Pekin would be what they're called.

As for color she's not blue, she's lavender or self-blue <--- same thing.
Oh yes, I'd say she's a girl
