About The Cochin

This breed is gentle, very rare and extremely beautiful. The bluish-slate color is striking in Cochins. When fully grown they will have feathers all over their bodies, making them a hardy breed that will keep on laying right through winter. Both sexes are outstanding for exhibition with their beautiful feathers and coloring. Although the Females do not lay as often as other breeds they will still lay a light brown colored egg on a regular basis.
