Cochin Thread!!!

[calichicken]

My little Sunny is 5 months old now. I think she is getting really cute.


If I bred her to him, what would I get, just black chicks?

Beautiful Birds!!!!

I have this little chick...3 1/2 weeks old I believe and Bantam Cochin? Can anyone tell me Roo or Pullet? I am thinking Roo because of the comb? But do not have much experience

Thoughts?

This is my blue roo. He's a bantam blue Cochin. 15 weeks old. I have his two black sisters and a Wyandotte cross that is mottled brown and white. I'm patiently waiting for my fist egg. My chickens were hatched in my second grade classroom on May 7th. My students loved the hatching process. We candled eggs along the way and watched them develop. The whole school was excited on hatching day!

He's stunning... I've been partial to blue birds lately... Want to come up with a project using blues

Is it possible that 15 week old bantam cockerel is fertile? He perfected his dance and "technique" a few weeks ago. I don't want to crack the only hen's eggs that is laying to check for bullseye, I want to collect them for incubating.

I just try incubating and check at five days

I doubt it but I suppose it is remotely possible. Above advice on incubating is good advice.

We've fallen in love with our pair of Cochin's. I can't believe how soft their feathers are! Luxurious, silky and sooooo soft with a sweet little bird somewhere in all that fluff!

This is Scrambles my golden laced cochin bantam and Noodles my mille fleur d'Uccle. Even though they're just pet quality, I love 'em to death!

Can anyone tell me what type of bantam rooster and the tan colored hen is? I just got them and the guy told me they were a pure breed. But he didn't know the breed. I found that odd but I still liked the way they looked so I bought them anyway. I know the grey hen is a mix.
