i need your opinions..what color cochin bantam should i try to make??

[LCwilson]

this spring my nannys(step grandma) cousin is going to get me 2-3 of every color cochin bantam mcmurray hatchery has. all except frizzle.
anyway i was wondering if any of you would be willing to give me some ideas on what color cochin bantam i could try to make.
for those of you who dont know what colors i am getting here they are... http://www.mcmurrayhatchery.com/category/cochin_bantams.html
i would like to make a color that is not yet recognized yet.
i know kind of a stupid question to ask but i thought i could make this my project bird for the spring.
thanks.
cole.

Well you could make a color that's not recognized yet, but probably not one that hasn't already been started. But maybe you could do, Blue Barred, Blue Mottled, or Blue Partridge.

 

[LCwilson]

i could. i know blue mottled is already started. but i could try blue barred and blue partridge. more ideas please!

 

[RAREROO]

Yep, I think all three have already been started, the blue mottled is just the most common of the three.

 

[LCwilson]

yeah thats what i thought,

 

[Goose and Fig]

There is a couple threads on how to make blue laced red or blue laced gold. I'd try that if you're ready for a commitment.

 

[LCwilson]

thank you i will try to make that. more suggestions though please!!! =]

Idk if it has been started but what about a Black Breasted Red cochin or a Red Pyle Cochin?

 

[Coopa Cabana]

They have Bantam Crele Cochins in the UK - not sure if anyone is working on them over here. Best of luck with your project, just remember to always breed for Cochin Type first, color is second.

thanks. i love red pyle OEG but not the OEG as much as cochins. now that would be something.
