    Will a 3-4 year old hen lay eggs?

    I have been offered a trio of white Cochins. They are from an amazing bloodline. However their age concerns me. They have 2019 rings on them. That means they were hatched in 2019. It’s been a few years since that time and just wanted to know if the hens will lay well. I’ll be attaching some...

    Frizzle Cochin genetics question??

    I have a few “barnyard mix” chickens and I’m wondering about my girl Ms. Frizzle and thought I’d ask to gain a better understanding of the frizzle gene. Her mother was a blue Cochin and there are several possible fathers. The mom was a normal smooth feathered Cochin. If I understand the...

    What type of cochins

    I have two minis, a hen and a rooster. I think the rooster is a Partridge, but I’m not sure. The hen is just said to be a Japanese breed. No idea what that could mean. Her mother was black, and her dad was red. what types of Cochins are these?

    cuteness vs. cuteness

    I can not decide who who is cuter, bantam cochin or d'uccle. What is your opinion? This is only about their cuteness, not their personality or anything else.

    Breed Guess on Barnyard Mix?

    So I posted awhile back about these pullets (hopefully!!) and I’m wondering if they are filled out enough to see any telltale signs of possible breeds? They are now 10 weeks old. I have determined that the Mother was a Blue Cochin (LF) and we are guessing the fathers were either a Black Frizzle...

    I have a rooster about 18 weeks old started limping. He’s just not doing any better. I don’t see signs of Bumblefoot or any wound or anything broken. He’s a Cochin, so it’s really hard to see anything. He still looks beautiful, has a healthy look and appetite for food and mating, but his leg...
