Absolutely gorgeous! If you're selling hatching eggs, please contact me. I am VERY interested. It's really difficult to find whites in bantam or standard.

I picked this big guy up this weekend. I'm told he isnt full cochin.

He sure looks it. He is a pretty big boy. I have a blue one like him and he is the sweetest until one of the other roos goes for one of his girls.

He is large I was told he wasn't that aggressive. But he keeps attacking me...Maybe I'm to mean LOL I need to find a way to win him over.

Thinking Id love to get a hen or two now to go with him. I may have to search the for sale board. Anyone know a good source for Cochins?

take some scratch or seeds with you when you go to check on him or the girls. after some time he may see you as the main food/treat bringer! i always found bringing some lettuce leaves are good for distance feeding by hand to test their temperaments works well.

i found hand feeding my Sunny seeds is not always a good thing since he tries to dig at your hand with his beak, and he is not gentle about it one bit! the girls are gentle most of the time but when there is better seed at the bottom they keep digging for more.
