this is a web site that is different. I am not sure if it is true. Read it and see what you think. The part about breeding a Frizzle to a Frizzzle I have also read the samething on another site.

There is Tina on ebay, her standard blue cochin eggs go for at least $60 a dozen plus shipping.

Here's one of Tina's roos.

I have hatched out some of her eggs with "mixed" results.

Could you post a picture of your results from Tinas eggs? What do you mean? Did you get double frizzle or just the 50% smooth, 50% frizzle you were supposed to get, or just smooth?? Not the right colors? Please post pics, thanks.

If I get a chance I'll shoot a few pics tomorrow. I hatched 5 out of eight eggs and only one was a frizzle. They are advertised as Giant Blue Cochin frizzles. The one frizzled cockerel that I have is Blue with red feathered wings. The other smooth feathered birds are a mix of black and blue, and all of them have scattered red/brown feathering. All of them are very small compared to my standard cochin chicks that hatched at the same time. Tina is a very nice person to work with, but if someone is hoping to hatch a good percentage of large, robust, blue frizzle standard cochins, it ain't happening.
