Cochin Thread!!!

[dolfi]

We just had to have one of our hens put down . We were thinking of getting a chick but what are some of your thoughts on raising one or should we not raise just one by it self. We do have 3 older but Small couple 7-8 old birds that when the little one got bigger could visit with(they are very sweet gentle birds so I'm not worried that the chick would be picked on) with our supervision of course. Have any of you raised just one chick with success. Thanks
.

sorry for the hen

See what did I tell you? I swear they do it on purpose lol. It is frustrating when all that work is wasted. 

YES!

I have a little blue iowa/cochin hen. Hope to see eggs from her in april-may time frame. The peewee eggs just kill me.

I need to show y'all pics on my black, mottled, blue mottled, and blue mottled chicks I have from my flock! I have more Roos than girls though. They are turning out nicely. They are about a month old now.

Pretty! Is that a frameless pen you made? Looks like there's a frame around the bottom perimeter but then walls and roof just welded wire? Nice idea!
