I don't know what breed these are! Can you help? Cochin, Wyandotte

[mschickychick]

These roo's are 3 months old now and I'm not sure what breed they are. They are roo's aren't they? They were Cackle Hatchery rare breed special.
Silver Laced something:

2 pics of the white one with a nice temperament:

Thanks for your help.

That is what my first impression was, also. The top one is throwing me off because it seems too tall and not as round as the cochins I'm used to seeing. Seems kinda Langshan-ish.

My cochins are really round and very heavly feathered. There is no daylight between ther legs. Just think short and round. Lots lots of feathers.

The fact that the silver laced is not roundish in shape is what's throwing me off too. Is anyone familiar with Dark Brahmas? He looks somewhat like the pics I found of those.

I also have 1 black hen and 3 (1 blue and 2 partridge) roo Cochins (they look like Cochins) and 2 Buttercup hens. I guess I'll sell or trade some or try to find mates for them. Hard to find mates when you don't know what they are!

Any other guesses?

Brahma's are supposed to have a pea comb...yours definitely has a single comb...

 

[cthrash1]

I thought Dark Brahma at first too but when I looked them up the ones I saw had pea combs or walnut combs whatever they are called.

 

[Chris09]

Cackle dont sell dark bramas I thought of that.. The only thing I think it could be is a Silver Laced Cochin if you go to the Cackle web page and look up the Silver Laced Cochin there is one on there that is close to that one you have.

I know cochins are supposed to be much rounder...but, this is hatchery...so maybe it is a cochin...
