Okies in the BYC The Original

[TheBarnSwallow]

Evening everyone!


Aleisha and I just lopped our hair off... I had about 12 inches cut off which left it chin length ... ( never known I had long hair since I always kept it up in a twist and clip)

But aleisha thought we should save our hair and donate it to locks of flocks... ha ha ya know the chickens... for their nest boxes... ha ha ha a

Robin the whole point is not to let you know how wonderful cochins are until you are so taken by them you can't do without them. Some of my first chickens were barred cochins, I still miss BC my first rooster. Right now I am working on a bantam and standard partridge cochin flock cuz I love the color. Hopefully I should start getting eggs from them soon. Next years project is building a mottled and a birchen flock, possibly millie fluer if I can find some. hint hint!

The one thing that is both wonderful and frustrating is how broody cochins get. I have got three sitting right now and finally got two others off the nest after taking their eggs away from them for a month. Stubborn but love them anyway!

lets see i have my snowball, and a mix cochin banty, Izzy... neither are broody...yet...
i have 2 partridge cochin 2 month olds.... couldn't resist the last two at orchlens....

Aleisha and I just lopped our hair off...

Hello dreamcatcherarabians,
Welcome, I'm new too and a Mighigan transplant.
I have discovered that chicken people are some of the nicest people in Oklahoma. That is saying alot because Okies and some of the nicest people in the world! I have been alot of places and it was ovbious as soon as we got here how nice folks are around here. It was a real treat after California; beautiful but too crowded and everyone in such a hurry!
MJ

Hey mike.

Just thought I would let you know that I have some nice game birds consigned for Saturday.. They are Henney hens and penny hens? Does that sound right? Nice birds... I cant remember what breed they told me they were.

I also have some nice Americana hens that will be coming... They are going thru molt, but good blood lines...
