i have a white cochin hen and if i was to cross a black cochin rooste to it what would it make do any of yall have pics of your black and white cochin crosses, please post the pics
 
Any cross involving a recessive white bird, such as white cochins, has the potential to be unpredictable. That said when crossed to black it is likely the many if not all of the offspring would be black with colour leakage.
Crosses to recessive white are not usually a very good idea as one is usualy introducing unknown genes into ones lines. Also any outcross from blacks is likely to lose recessive melanising (blackening) genes,
