Bantam Cochin Chickens

About Bantam Cochin Chickens:

Bantam (miniature) size - (1.5-2lbs)
Friendly and calm
Make good pets
Reasonably cold hardy (combs can frostbite easily if kept in damp or drafty winter housing)
Readily broody
Good mothers
Average layers of small, cream-colored eggs
We have calico/mille fleur and blue calico/mille fleur colors, as well as frizzle feather genetics in our flock
Correct mille fleur color is a brown base, black chevron and white tip throughout the body
Calico is a nickname used for mille fleur birds with excessive/incorrect white - while not an official color variety, the birds are striking
Most of our foundation breeding stock came from Anna Whybrew and Roslyn Pickens; thanks ladies!

Here are a photos of some of our 6-8 week old chicks; they'll change a lot yet in both color and body:
