This is not a Bantam Buff Cochin...

[MelBrown13]

So a few weeks ago I posted here and was told this was a buff Cochin. I have two other best coaches, and the more this one develops, the more I realize it's not a buff Cochins. Lol

Could this be a Gold Neck D'Uccle?

Any other ideas?

Also, I'm guessing cockeral, yes?

Thanks in advance!

Why is it not a BBC?

That is a gold neck D'uccle.

ETA: also looks like a cockerel.

That is a gold neck D'uccle.

I agree, I am just wondering what defines it as so, and makes it not a Cochin.

I attached another pic. Seems a lot of white/cream compared to the other 2 BCCs I have.
I'm super new, but I've never seen one like this I guess.

Bantam cochins and d'uccles are completely different breeds. Cochins have a rounder body, and while both have a single comb and feathered feet, they have completely different body shapes. D'uccles have a thing called vulture hocks, extra long feathers off the back of their "knee" cochins don't have this.

He is bearded, has mottling, vulture hocks, and a higher tail angle.

Ah.
And that is why I should always look closer at the pics!
