Orps with Cochins?? Help please

[Brie6895]

I am getting five baby chicks tomorrow. I know for sure I'm going to pick a buff orpington or two (not sure yet) and they also have Cochins in almost every color. Will these two birds get along well? I'm also considering and australorp.
I just want a colorful flock that gets along great!

Another question is it better to get 2 buff orpingtons?

I would really appreciate a reply. I've been trying to pick from a couple breeds the last few days and I think I have narrowed it down, for now lol.

Those breed will all be fine together. Most breeds of chickens do well. Birds that have problems getting picked on are birds like Polish or silkies that can't see well, or look strikingly different to the other birds. Color never seems to be an issue.

Enjoy your babies!

I normally mix mine according to size so there isn't too much bullying. They should mix well.
