Mille Cochin Info

Gracie is so photogenic with a mother who is a true artist, capturing beautiful moments.

Well, for the time being I am pretty much sold out of MC. I think I may have a pair or trio left when I decide which roo is not going to stay. I always have chicks growing up and was amazed when I was gathering birds for our local poultry day swap that I did not have much to take. Unfortunately, I came home with 4 Silkies! A lavender roo I had sold last fall, 2 splash hens and a red pyle project roo. Unreal how I get talked into trades! I traded Guinea eggs for the 2 amazing splash hens but was given the 2 roos. Ugh!

The fun part was when we headed home and stopped at the feed store for a bag of horse grain. One of the cashiers came out to see the Silkies because she breeds "fancy" chickens. Come to find out she has MFC. Popularity is growing!

Thanks for your nice comments guys. I am already falling in love with Dante, the man I bought him from has really gorgeous MF. He has them in so many different shades (chocolate, blue, terracotta and lemon) I cant wait to see what my chicks turn out like. I am going to have to move on some other children this week so I've got more room for Mille's!!!

Loving this thread I love to see everyone's birds.
