Hi,
I received a mix of chicks ( Ameraucana & French Copper Maran) and had these 2 mystery in there, of which Im not sure.
They have feathered legs. Im thinking Cochin? and not sure what color this is called, and if one might happen to be a female??
Below are some pics from 1 day to now about 10 weeks...
What do you think???
1 Day Old
4 Weeks
At this age they both started combs and wattles early thinking they're both males, one stood tall always and the other with less feathers on the legs always stands like a ball.
about 6 weeks old
This is the shorter one of the 2 we call nugget.
10 Weeks old
Here is the Taller one ( inside) , still with the most leg feathers at 10 weeks, and nugget (out
side) whom still has few leg feathers, is smaller with no black on chest and softer feathers that blow around in a light breeze. I wish i had more of this breed to better compare - Although they both have substantial wattles and comb, is it possible one might be a female?
