What color cochin??

[Olivermarc88]

Hi all. Does anyone know what colour species this little one is from the colours. I believe its a pekin / chochin but i wondered what one. Or is there any literature available that shows images of chick species that anyone knows of?

Um That is a chicken and a Pekin is a duck sooo I believe it is an Amerecauna

Its a pekin bantam / Cochin. It has the feathered legs and its the same size as my other pekin bantam. But I'm unsure of the color of pekin/cochin

I'd say it's a partridge colour, but I'm no expert. Don't worry - you aren't the only one to confuse our friends in the U.S. by calling them Pekins. I asked how many Pekin eggs I could put under my tiny Old English Game bantam. Someone thought I meant duck eggs!

It could be silver partridge and BTW I think its a roo! :O

Pekin is used as a breed descriptor in both ducks and chickens.

I've just discovered A silver penciled Cochin......the resemblance is uncanny
