Yay! She is beautiful, and not just because I love Cochins!Just an update for anyone who is curious about how all this turned out.
I guess you can't ever trust comb/wattles 100%, because Miss Gusty is all hen. I guess I won't be eating my hat after all

Thank you
I have a white frizzle bantam Cochin that shared a nest with a rosecomb. They share four babies. I have a porcelain d'Uccle that decided to go, full on broody this evening. She is sitting on a ceramic egg.Thank you
Yes, she's a pretty little thing. I felt horrible taking all those eggs from her, but I can't have any more chicks right now. I think she might be headed for broody jail...only 4.5 months old and already a convict T_T

`I know it. I can't believe she started so early. Gee, I wonder if she's gonna die from reproductive problems someday...*sarcasm*Why, she's still a baby!
That mighnt be painful, but I wouldn't have to feed a ceramic chick.Bless her heart. Maybe she'll hatch out a ceramic chick
I'd give Gusty a ceramic one but they're about 5x bigger than her real ones. Also, I don't really want her sleeping underneath a rubbermaid stool in the pouring rain...
