Where to find high quality mottled bantam cochins

[cicene mete]

Hi everybody,

I was wondering if anyone knew of a good breeder of mottled cochins. Someone gave me the name of a breeder, but he no longer works with cochins. I have a pair of Mille Fleur cockerels, and I want to begin breeding them with mottled cochins so that in two generations I can get more Millies. I can handle hatching eggs

, chicks

, or adults

, as long as the person can ship to me in Western Massachusetts.

I know that I can get them from a hatchery, but I'd rather start with high quality, even though I am relatively new at this.

Thanks as always!

PS, I should clarify that I'm not interested in blue mottled but rather good old-fashioned black-and-white.

I used to know a good breeder but they went out of business. What about Casey Ree, he is around sometimes and his user name is something like frizzleroostercasey or something like that. If you can find the cochin site there may be breeders there. Also try posting in the wanted section.
