Standard Cochin or Bantam Cochin?

[Chlosal]

Hi, all! I was wondering if you could help me determine if my Buff Cochin is a standard (as it was sold to me at local feed store) or if it’s actually a Bantam.
I’ve never had this breed before so am not familiar with how quickly they develop. The reason I’m wondering if it’s actually is a Bantam, is because my Black Star (a week or less older) is gigantic compared to it — and I believe that standard Cochins should be larger than Black Stars? Both were sold to me as Pullets.
Here’s the sweet baby at 3 days old:

And now, at just over 2 weeks:

Compared to Black Star, from last week, the Black Star has seemed to grow a ton even since this:

I will be more than happy either way, but am just curious if those with Cochin-experience could tell a difference and determine if this is indeed a Standard, or not
Thank you,
God bless!

I think that's a standard. Just know that feedstore standard Cochins are not the same size as show quality standard Cochins! And hatcheries can only guarantee an 80% sexing rate or so on chicks that aren't sex linked. So your black sex link is a pullet but the cochin it's too early to tell : D good luck!

Pretty sure it’s a standard Cochin. Male or female, too early to tell. I have a blue Cochin hen who is a delight! She comes and sits on my lap and talks to me all the time. She’s pretty low in the pecking order as she’s so docile, but I do plan to have more Cochins in the future, especially if they’re as sweet as she is with me. Here she is napping on my lap.
