Cochin Thread!!!

I have been working on this color for several years now. This is where I am with the project right now. I started with very good quality cochins which I hope shows through in the pictures of the offspring below. I was considering selling a few eggs from these birds. If I tried to sell a few eggs from these birds, would anyone be interested? Just curious. BTW no birds to sell just eggs.











WOW I love that color. What would you describe this color as?

Crele maybe?
true crele would be barred black breasted red (duckwing)... so brown red barred would be more accurate IMO. I have plans of my own, to 'make' a bbr cochin, but it's just in the plans, as i haven't found the right birds to use yet... and dorking would be wrong, as all my cochin/dorking chicks end up with 5 toes fuzzy feet and LOOOONG backs. LOL

My Blue Cochin chicks arrived this morning I only ordered five but got an extra! They look more black to me is this normal? do i have 2 different colors here, Are they blue?
 
Twyla, very pretty chicks. I have quite a few mottled and MF splits running around myself.


Grumpy, they do look a little dark. But, they change so much. Give them some time.
