Cochin bantams first appeared in England around 1860. It was first considered that they had been bred down from large Cochins, but that is not the case as the foundation birds were brought from China by returning soldiers. Black Cochin bantam chicks are black with white wing tips, chest, and abdomen. They have single combs and feathered, white legs and feet. The adult plumage is glossy black with green sheen.

Our bantams are purebred and represent the breed and variety; however, we do not guarantee or represent that they are of show quality.
