This is Sweetie Bird, she looks so mean in this picture but she's absolutely not ever. And one of the many many chicks shes hatched. Right now i gave her a Peahen egg and she's in love with the huge egg!

She's so cute!

Here's some of my past Bantam Cochin chicks. I currently have 6 hens and 5 roosters (only one with the girls) and 5 new baby chicks possibly frizzles.

Sooo many gorgeous birds! I have only limited experience with Cochins—all of mine are 8-9 weeks, but so far I love them. They’re little squaty tiny bodies that are so busy foraging and cheeping everywhere! They’re way braver than some of my standard chicks too. I was telling some other folks, I got 4 bantam Cochins and a Welsummer pullet from a local woman so they have been together since birth. They are the funniest little bunch of birds, they follow Brad (the Welsummer pullet my husband named) everywhere like she’s their Mama. It’s freaking adorable We call them the Brad Pack and it’s three little girls and a feisty boy. When they’re out of Brad’s sight, she calls for them and they come running from wherever they are. Hehe. The one I named Molly comes and visits me every day and the boy, Emilio has started too as well. I love the character they add to the flock! They’re the cutest! I also have a large fowl frizzle Cochin, Ms. Frizzle, and she’s also super friendly. I would not describe them as cuddly, but very friendly and super patient with kids. I was surprised that my BCM pullet is my cuddliest chicken, she nuzzles down under my chin and sleeps on me while everyone forages. I love her!
