Large Fowl Cochin Thread

I am looking for a chart I know I've seen before.
It shows the color of the Cochin's you will get when breeding color A with color B etc...
My eyeballs are about to pop out of my head from looking.
Does anyone know where I can find this or a chart?

thank you

thank you for the link. I think that one is over my head I tried to put in
my blue male Cochin with my splash Cochin hens but it wouldn't give me the option for the splash.
Maybe it would help if I just ask.

mating a LF blue cochin with a LF splash cochin would give me???
I assume a % of blue and a larger % of splash?

50% blue, 50% splash. At least mathematically.

Yes that is it =).

I have someone wanting eggs from my girls but they wanted to know how many of each they would get.
This is my first year with my Cochin's and I knew I had seen a picture/post of % but I couldn't find it or
remember where I had exactly seen it. I've saved it to my chicken file this time to make sure I don't lose
it again.
Thanks to both of you for your help =)

I am looking high and low for large fowl Cochin hatching eggs. My son was flogged by my in-law's rooster earlier this year and he is slowly coming back around to trusting my younger chickens. I want to start him with Cochins to get him comfortable with chickens again. I also need some big broodies so I don't lose hatches when the power goes out. I prefer to hatch out my own flock members.

Thank you!

I have some hatching in the bator from there right now! she ships eggs VERY well. I ordered a dozen and got 14. All developed and had good air cells, pulled 3 at day 12 that were early quitters but the rest went in for lock down. Pretty good for shipped eggs now we will see how many hatch. I believe I have 2 zipping and 2 more pipped and hatch day isn't until tomorrow lol
