I love all my girls but the buff orps are my friendliest of the bunch.

My Silkie's eggs are nearly as large and as frequent as my Buff Orp. Just FYI. Oh, I should add when she's not broody that is.

I'm surprised about all the Cochin lovers....never did know how to pronounce the name, let alone have one in the flock. What's the attraction there?

Pronunciation? Breed characteristics that make it so desirable?

 

[luvchicks8]

I pronouce it Co-Shin but that could be wrong. I have 9 out of 18 of my birds are cochins and they are the best birds imo.
