Mille Cochin Info

I never intended to sell them as Cochins. I know they are not.

I was offering a mixed project group of eggs. Which is what I put. I noted some would be mille fleur and some would just be mixes that have the genetics to create the color mille fleur. I said nothing about being cochins.

I'm not sure what I did wrong. But I can delete my posts if you like. I have no intentions on causing problems or confusion.

As a side note.

There are many people that sell mille fleurs. I suggest Lynne or Nancy. Both are very nice, and have beautiful birds.

how do i reach them , BYC name , email , website ?

Jen,

I'm so pleased that the pair are working out for you. Alfred's Dad is Santiago. Santiago has the best disposition & is such a giving husband to his ladies. I'm happy to hear that Alfred is walking in his Dad's footsteps.

lynne--I am such a dork--the rooster's name is actually ALBERT (as in Einstein...) I musta not had enough coffee.. hahah.. they are still doing great. I love them, they are both so sweet. I can't wait for chicks from them...

What would happen if Albert were with my white frizzle cochin hen? Would that give more calico colorings? Or just mess everything up? I was wondering if that would throw in the frizzle gene maybe? just for fun..

Albert really has his eye on her.. it must be the curls... lol! as an aside--she is very SQ, nice type etc. She is one of my show chickens, and always places well....

Hey Jen,

Nothing ventured, nothing gained~! I sure would try a mating between fluffy butt & Albert

If you're looking for Calicos, this may be the ticket....frizzled calico cochins, now that's something I would love to see.

I also have a frizzle white hen. Is white recessive in cochins as well? Hows that work with the mille fleur gene?

I was thinking of selling her, but may keep her if she will throw some nice babies

According to some posts earlier in this thread, Tate has sold all his stock & is no longer selling MFC. Check some of the comments a week or so ago.
