I'm doing the same thing, Nadine

I love my cochins and I was looking for more bantamfeathered feet to populate my barn!!

Lori, got a question for you! A couple of the babies that hatched the other day have feathering on all toes. Not heavy, but it's there. Is that a DQ or a problem?

I get that on my lavs from time to time. It's baby down you're talking about, right?
If so, I find that it scruffles off and they have the feathers in the usual places by the time they mature.

Yeah, just baby fluff. They are only 3 days old, but almost look like baby Silkie feet!

My lavs did that, but at 2 weeks old they have naked toes that are making me nervous. I suspect they will have good feathering in a few more weeks though
