Can ya'll show me some chickens?

I ordered some chicks to cheer myself up, and they're ones that i've never had before. The pictures online are ok, but i'd like to see some birds that aren't show quality and in their natural habitat

I'm getting...
Silver laced Polish
Mottled Houdan
Crececouers
Blue Cochin
Black Cochin
White cochin

Anyone have opinions or pictures?

Go to google, and click "Images" at the top. Then enter the name of each breed you are looking for and you'll get thousands of pictures to view...

That's a good suggestion. I was thinking "Feathersite", but Google would give you photos from numerous sources.

I did that already

I had decent luck with the Cochins, but almost none with the Creves or the Houdans.
Besides, I like seeing everyone's birds here.

Here is one of my Mottled Houdan , Larry.

Ooh very pretty! How are they temperment wise? Satan (RIP Satan) was insane. He's the only polish roo i've ever had

I had 3 Larry , Moe & Curly. Moe went to a new home. THey aren't bad, not particularly loving but not crazy either. They don't volunteer to be held, but once you pick them up they are pretty content.
Their crows leave much to be desired in my book, about equal to fingernails on a chalkboard.....

They try to intimidate the other chickens, but the other day my bantam cochin, Uno, stood up to Larry and Larry backed off

It was pretty funny seeing this little bitty bird stand his ground. Of course they are all just a few months old too.
