Awwww, Dang!  I would have bought him, he was soooo gorgeous! He was the bird who got me lovin' that color! I wish I had known he was 4 sale. Could you please repost his pic so I can at least have something to drool at?

You may be in luck, I think the lady that bought him from me has him up for sale. I'll get with her and let you know, she had them listed on Best Farm Buys

I had to get these pictures out of the recycle bin. Now, it may be you were talking about another roo that I lost 2 years ago. This guy was one I posted last year before I bought the roo I have now~

i've got a happy mom too, hers hatched yesterday. she's oegb with mostly barred rock (LF) chicks, but to make it cochin pertinent, she also has one pure cochin. i think it's a silver laced but not positive yet.



my cochins were all free ranging at the time, i had silver laced and black/self blue hens with silver laced, black/sb and mille fleur roos.

If you are talking Bantams I know that a person used an outstanding typed male Black Mottled on a partridge hen. Then took the best typed birds and bred back together. Made the best bantam Partridge I knew of. Takes a while but it worked.

Hello everyone, I'm Skyler and I am new to chickens! We live in the middle of the Piney Woods in East Texas. We got our first chicks in April, then a few more in May, and more in May! Now we have all kinds of different breeds. We tried to buy from local breeders, but live in the middle of nowhere. We were able to buy from 2 different breeders in Texas, and we also tried Ideal since they are only about 2 hrs from here. This has all been an excellent learning experience! We built our first chicken coop and are still finishing it up now. Currently chicks are living in the house! Anyways, I hope I am in the right thread, I got a Silver Laced Cochin and Blue Cochin from Ideal, they are 3.5 weeks old today.



and I am not really sure where to post pics of this chick. This is a Frizzle Cochin/Silkie Cross. I'm not sure which she got more of? It has 5 toes! That is as much as I can tell thou! I thought it was going to be totally white, but then a little black spike came up near its eyes! And now a splash of black on the chest. If I posted this photo in the wrong place! Sorry!
