chelsea Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 I love the big grey fluffy chook, she looks huge, what is she? Mrs B I think she's a cochin Mrs B, we also have a splash cochin.

feemcg Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 I love the Splash Cochin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted December 3, 2007 Author Share Posted December 3, 2007 The splash and the blue girls are both cochins. The splash cochin hatched on 25th May and the blue cochin hatched 22nd June. The cream hen with the brown feathers is a Merrydale Sweetie hybrid (from Merrydale Poultry in Leicester). These photos were taken in the good old days when they could free range.

chelsea Posted December 3, 2007 Share Posted December 3, 2007 thanks Janty, that would explain their size compared to my cochins, ours are about 2/3 months younger than yours. At least I can see what mine are going to get like. Yours arent laying yet are they? I know cochins are slow maturing but when do you expect yours to lay?

Janty Posted December 3, 2007 Author Share Posted December 3, 2007 None of mine are laying...Won't expect anything until spring from the pure breeds. I had hoped that the hybrids might make the effort though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bouncy Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Well Hi Janty I was hoping for an early night tonight but Bouncy has other plans...... Yep you got it Chook talk!!!! I think we have decided on Minitures and 4 of them, Light Sussex, Buf Orpington, Maran Cuckoo and a Silver Wyandotte. I think this should be a good mix - what do you think. BTW the pics are great roll on the 19th when the girlies can be free again See you soon Timcho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 Lovely pics! And congratulations on your egg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted December 7, 2007 Author Share Posted December 7, 2007 Girls can come out on 10th I think. It looks as if the outer zone restrictions are being lifted earlier. Hens sound great...I don't know much about them though. Have you got any breeders in mind? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
