I have a 2 week old blue cochin right now and she is a little sweetheart. She is the most quiet out of the whole bunch and the easiest to handle. Good luck with your chickes!

Blue cochin are next on my list. They are so cute! Where did you order from?

I orderd from McMurray Hatchery... there the only ones I found that had both cochins and polish...

I have 3 polish hens and they are hilarious!!!! And surprisingly good little layers, too!

I received a buff polish chick with my Ideal order last week (bantam surprise), and I'm fairly sure it's a roo since it's big bad and super brave

I have a credit w/Murray mcmurray- might be an Excuse to order more chicks and get some blue cochin.

Do you have any problems with your other hens picking on the Polish? I've heard this can be a problem sometimes.

Ive always wanted polish chickens... but never wanted to buy 25... just a few for the house..

but then my FAVORITE chicken died... I have no Idea how... she never looked abused... always was the 1st to eat... and then just like that... DEAD!....

She was the only reason I had my frizzles and arucanas... now thats shes gone, Im doing a whole new chicken setup and changing all my chickens...

My loose chickens will be the cochins... they will have the run of the farm... I orderd 15 of them...

The Polish will be in the Chicken Coop.... thats the plan..

I could not make up my mind on which polish to get so I got a "SAMPLER"... if you will

My order came with a mystery Rare chick... 1.

What could that be? Do you think they will stick to what I orderd as my mystry chick or give me something compleatly random?

What a fun batch!

I'm so excited for you!
