Cochin Thread!!!

I believe that your chick is self blue I can't see it's whole body but if it is all the same color it is a self blue very nice, it's hard to get self blue.

Thanks well she seems to be a spash/paint
This is her now

I also found that the two "brown ones" are golden laced bantam cochins, I don't know if I should sell them or make a new coop for them. I only have standards and the buff and 2 gl seem to be bantams

if you want to keep them try to put them in the coop at night they can't see well at night, and if they wake up with the new ones they may be expected into the flock. Just keep a eye on them they may get harassed a bit for a couple days, but this method has worked for me in the past.

There's a little icon with mountains and a sun at the top of the reply box. If you click on that it'll ask you how to add a picture.

I've heard a rumor that male cochins grow their feathers A LOT slower then the females do as chicks, is this true?
