Tell me about ur Cochin

[Morgk]

Tell me how your Cochins were as mothers and broody, and as over all chickens.

I have 2 Cochin ladies, they’re actually huge because of the massive fluff I’ve never had one go broody (usually always my silkies go broody) and they’re super loud! I love them and want more because how fluffy they are but they make god awful chicken noises and it’s always the Cochin!!
their eggs are big (but I only have silkie eggs to compare) They usually lay once a day or every other day. I’m getting a good steady stream of nice eggs from them

Is that a blue Cochin? And how old are ur chickens

She is 2 years old and yes I have a blue and a black. The other 14 or so died unfortunately when they lived at my uncles their first winter while I was moving houses.
In this picture you can see my black Cochin.

I have a couple muts that I have no idea what they are and a bunch of splash silkies, couple white ones. The white silkies are super friendly. Cochins I’ve never been able to pet but they aren’t mean. I wish I could have some black and blue silkies but everyone is buying chicks right now! Oh and 2 call ducks that I really don’t like because they make the water so dirty but they live in the coop too.

I love brahmas, I raised a few of them for my family when they all were delivered. Super friendly chicks and beautiful adults! As for the ducks, I regret taking them from my Uncle. They get the water dirty and poopy, they pick on people and aren’t friendly (not all ducks just mine).
