These boys have all been sold.
These are silkied Black Cochin bantams, so they have the silkie-feather gene and are fuzzy like Silkies. However, they are PURE Cochin bantams, not mix breeds! They can therefore be bred with smooth Cochin bantams and will produce all smooth Cochin offspring, all carrying silkied feathering.
They hatched around June 9. They are fully off of heat, living outside, and have been weaned onto mixed flock pellets, but will happily still eat a crumble feed if offered as well. They are all living together and should be fine continuing to do so if you're interested in more than one!
If interested, send me a private message and we can discuss pricing and where to meet for picking them up. I cannot ship these boys and can only travel so far, so please take note of your distance from Whitley County in northeast Indiana before you ask about them!
In addition, I have these boys who I'd like to rehome as well. The first looks outwardly like a silkied Blue Cochin bantam, but I suspect he is mixed color and may have color leakage show up later on.
The next is a Chocolate Cochin bantam, but he's got a lot of throwback genes to the Orpington bantams that were used to introduce the color, so he's visually more of a Cochin-Orpington mix, honestly. He may grow out to look more Cochin-like, but I cannot make any guarantees on that. He does have the sexlinked chocolate gene, though, so breeding him to any females that are not chocolate will make sexlinked chicks!
