Help with Gender of 11 week old chicks

[Rhodebar Lover]

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?

Roos

Your blue hen isn't a Cochin and doesn't have a rose comb, it looks like a mixed breed hen that has Brahma blood.

Really?? She sure looked like some of the pictures we have seen of cochins... she definitely could be a mix.. she came from a barnyard flock so some were purebred others mutts..

See you learn something new everyday..

Yep, Cochins always have single combs. She may have Cochin blood in her though.

As for the genders they all look like cockerels to me.
