LOL! Not holding out, just didn't want to tell you they were all roos and you be disappointed! Most people don't want a bunch of roosters. But, I take it, you do.

They all look like roos to me.

 

[Ellie]

Well I can keep two Roos but I am not sure about three. I'm pretty sure that these will get along given Cochin dispositions.

As long as they get along and don't over-breed the hens, keep them all. You could lose one to a predator or some other way, so then you'll have backups.

I will give that a try...I would hate to give up one of these precious little ones.

Tell that to my 2 hens with black necks. They both lay an egg a day, so yes, they are hens. The other 3 laced girls do have lacing on their necks, but obviously that's not an absolute.

Interesting. That's why I love these discussions of a specific breed. We can learn so much from each other.

I updated this for those who want to look at the pictures and see what the gender actually is. The older one, Harvey crowed and now the middle one, Stanley crowed. We wait for the little one now....

I couldn't be happier. I want a cochin rooster and if all three are roos, I will be delighted though it would be nice to have one female golden laced cochin from a breeder as these are. I have a female gl cochin, Lacy but she is a hatchery chick now 4 and a half years old.
