The Beautiful Bantam Cochin!

[I Like Turkeys]

My frazzled bantam cochin, Peach, will never cease to shock me with her feathers. She just went through a molt(thank goodness) and has a nice full set of feathers for the upcoming winter. Gonna be separating her and a buddy soon to lessen the chances of her losing her feathers all over again.

For how fluffy she is now, she was almost entirely bald 2 months ago. Don't have too many good photos, but she was very bare. She's approaching 3 years old, since I got her in Februrary of 2022, she'll be turning 3 in about 4 months. She's thriving, despite the feather issues. Just as rambunctious as the rest of my cochins.

Oh no! Poor thing, I am glad she is gaining her feathers back! I love autumn and winter, but this is the worst time for the appearance of chickens . . . they start looking like they are abused and it is embarrassing!
