Keri Warren –
As a first-time Cackly Hatchery customer last year, I ordered 5 unsexed bantam red cochins (along with 5 barred cochin pullets and 5 buff brahma pullets) to join our existing silkies. Cackle packed them lovingly, and all chicks were healthy upon arrival. I received an extra red cochin, and we ended up with 3 pullets and 3 roos. While the red cochin girls are exceedingly friendly, gentle, and surprisingly quiet (compared to the other breeds), the roosters have been pretty aggressive with each other and with the hens, so two had to be rehomed. Fortunately, they never displayed any aggression toward me, and my Silkie roo is the boss who attempts to teach manners. We allow them all to free range during the day in a large area enclosed by 4 ft fencing (originally put up for the silkies). While this has been absolutely fine for the buff brahmas and barred cochins, the fence is merely a suggestion for the red cochins. I have seen them resting on top of my 6 ft crop cages as well. They do always hop back over, but the red cochins do love to explore. They are lovely, friendly birds. Thank you, Cackle Hatchery!

Healthy and cute! More brown than red, but still fluffy cuteness. Also very quiet and SWEET! This breed wins for me as the sweetest of all. Brahmas are very sweet, but a little more talkative. Cochins are the best.

I love all sizes of Cochins. I’ve never had the Red before but they are a beautiful deep red color and fluffy. I have the Bantums and they run with my white and blue. I’ll be ordering more next spring. Thank you always for your great service and help!

I am not sure if I can properly assess the red cochin female purchase because I suspect the female may have been one of the chicks smashed accidentally by the surrogate momma hen. I did end up with a very timid red male cochin from the bantam surpise order. The surprise bantam cochin order also included a gorgeous, but timid, partridge bantam cochin that appears to be developing into a female. The partridge bantam cochin female will take the place of the red bantam cochin female as a future wife for my red smooth satin rooster. All of my silkies and satins show a friendly disposition, and I am hopeful that these little chicks will warm up with more exposure to people and other chickens.

Love Cochins
All my chicks arrived in good shape despite how cold it was when they were shipped. I love all Cochins but red, buff, black and birches are my favorites. I have an older red rooster who is boss of the young ones from this spring even though they are as big as he is

Healthy chicks-NOT for show
Received healthy, lively chicks that did well, however, this is NOT the color of this breed to get if you want to show-they do not obtain the extreme feathering that other colors have been bred to (any hatchery) but are perfectly fine if you just want to enjoy them at home!

Lively chicks
I ordered three red cochins along with three buff brahmas and they arrived today in great shape. In spite of the cold weather they were lively, thristy and hungry. Cackle sent along an extra red cochin as well. They are eating and drinking great. Thanks Cackle for such great little birds.
