Hi everybody! So I am in love with bantam Cochins! I don't own any but they are on top of my spring hatching list. Feel free to post as many pictures of your flock!

I don't have any (I might if I can't get d'uccles) but I'm excited to see them

This is my little rooster Jessie. Also, is it just mine or are all the cochin bantam roosters very aggressive? I'm trying to work with him so, hopefully he'll stop pecking the blood out of me

Oh he is just gorgeous!! I have had some aggressive even at a week old! It seems hit or miss. My current bantam cochin loves to be held, is great w the other girls.. but seems like every few days, she wants to chase and bite.. mine is a splash and i have heard from others that sometimes a particular color might just have more aggression traits. I am hoping to get a RED next!! Hopefully it'll be mellower.

I only have one, Hanabi. She is a real sweetheart.

Hatchery quality from Cackle, but still pretty cute. She is such a tiny little thing. One of my very small silkie pullets that is 3 weeks younger, is about the same size. I would get more if I had room! Photos from this morning, she is 20 weeks old now. Think she may be laying soon, she’s been checking out the nest boxes! She is very curious and always tries to peck the camera!
