Ughh.. i was hoping the faverolle cochin was a hen... the other 2 i thought roos but wanted to be wrong. The last one im leaning towards roo but the tail has me fooled..
 
I think all are cockerels if they are only 11 weeks old. However the first isn't a Faverolles/Cochin cross. Not with that comb. Do you have Brahmas?

Nope no brahmas. We have a columbian cochin roo, a faverolle roo, duccle and polish. Roo.

Hens are Faverolle, barred rock, silkie, polish, duccle and a couple oegb.

It has the 5th toe and beard..

Single combs are recessive. Cochins and Faverolles both have single combs, so a cross between the 2 should also result in a single comb. The first bird looks to have a rose comb. Extra toes are dominant, as are partial beards.

We have a blue cochin hen with a rosecomb. Could the faverolle rooster and blue cochin rosecombed hen produce the chick?

But the color comes from the columbian cochin rooster.. could the chick have 2 daddies?
