Very cute! How is its temperament?

She's so tiny compared to her best friends the Rouen and the Jersey Giant.

Very cute pictures, and an unlikely relationship! What breed is she and how friendly?

Great, laid back and aloof with me, let's the girls get their treats and food first, just what I want in my cockerel, much better than my BR cockerel who only care about themselves.

Hopefully this temperament stays, we will see when the hormones kick in and the BR cockerels are gone.

Awesome sauce =) I stopped collecting for two days and went out last night to find my off color lemon blue/brown lf cochin that hatched chicks 2weeks ago started laying again 3 so far, I know it's her because her sister is separate from the cochin pen on a nest and the rest in there coop are bantams =) also all 4 of my silky hens started up again so yay =)

Silkie X Cochin Frizzle. She's super friendly once you catch her. We don't hold the chicks much so they aren't terribly accustomed to it.

What color would she be considered...?
