I have a hodge podge and they get along fine. 1 brahma, 1 RIR, 1 Maran, 2 GLW, 1 EE and 4 cochins. I also got several of them at different times. A lot has to do with how you introduce a new girl to the group.I have to admit, I'm really digging these chickens. They look like hawks. BUT, I also adore silkies and cochins. Does anyone have EEs with silkies and/or cochins? I think I just want one of each, and the rest EEs, but I also don't want murders in my coop. I only want 6 chickens total (the infamous chicken math not withstanding). I also wonder if one cochin and one silkie will be okay, or if they would be happier with similar looking buddies. Or would they even care?
