Congratulations! I’m so jealous. That is amazing that you had such a good hatch rate. Keep us updated with pictures as they develop.

Are they adorable or what!!!?? Thank you so much for posting the pics. I think the dark ones belong to Bridget. They take longer to see the coloring but are worth the wait. I have some from Bridget that were hatched in Nov. They are just now starting to show good color.

Keep the pics coming!!!

Hey guys, Since you all are bantam cochin experts, would you tell me what you think these two are? Please tell me they are both girls

Everyone on here has told me that they are cochins. I thought they were booted bantams because they have vulture hawks. I read that cochins should not have them, but they are from a hatchery so

I didn't know what they were at first, I said she has tail pipes!

I got them because the little yellow one had poop all over her and two missing toes

So I had to get her a buddy. Since they aren't sexed I am worried now that I realized they will be a lot bigger bantams than I thought. They looked about a week old when I brought them home.

Now, a week and a half later

Oh Boy! We've bought some of Lynne's MFC eggs (shipping Monday) and now see what we've got coming.

Beautiful! Please keep us abreast of their development and we'll send pictures of ours. I hope our hatch rate is as good! Congrats!

Thanks!

They are gorgeous chicks!

I will update with some pic's as they grow up. . Scratchn By -I expect to see cute baby pictures in a little over three weeks.

for your hatch.

You bet cruzinTbird! We will keep you all in the loop.

I have a bator full of babies and these made me go do some candling, just to check how we're doing. Every egg was gtg!

We're ready! Can't wait!

Thanks Lynne!

I finally got out to the grow-out pen yesterday & got pics of my F2's from the Nov 08 hatch. I wanted to share the results.

Good close up of feather pattern

Thanks to all of you who have purchased hatching eggs from me. I don't show, this is just a hobby for me. So I want all of you to get out there with this color & make it recognized!
