What Breed Is It? Cochin?

[geolemer]

I am 99.9% sure they are Cochins of some type and all the hens are uniform in color.

I also got a pair of barred Cochins with them, and was told both types came from a hatchery and are about 9 weeks old.

Thank You for any help.

Looks Cochin to me. I'm sure youll get some more replies though.

Wow- almost looks like a banty partridge cochin roo. You have any more pics? I didn't think partridge came in bantam. Let see the girls!

I have a hard time believing 9 week old anything with those waddles and comb. But definitely cochin looking.

Here are some of the hens.

Sorry for the wet feet, they splashed in there water. The pitchers don't do these birds justice.

I would say Partridge cochin and YES they do come in bantam because I have one too!

I don't know what the hens are called in that pattern- looks different than my partridge LF, but hard to tell from the thumbnail. They have to be older than you were told- but nice little birds!

I LOVE banty cochins- they are loads of fun!

I keep and breed Partridge Cochin Bantams(I have about 60 now) and they look identical to Fudgie's. These are vary different.

Definately Cochin, Hatchery I Doubt Because They Dont Look Like Any Standardized Color--- The Roo Could Pass For Partridge, But The Hens Look Like They Fall Somewhere Between Goldlaced And Partridge/ Black --- They Dont Conform To Any Color Really. They Are Alot Older Than 9 Weeks---- Cochins Mature Very Slowly And The Roos Wattles And Comb Are Fully Developed--- 9 Mos Old At Least, Maybe More--- What Does He Have For Spurs? At 9 Mos Old They'd Be Not Much More Than Hard Buds.

They're Very Attractive Lil Guys!
