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. Blue Cochin bantam chicks are three colors: black, blue, and white with a blue cast. They have single combs and feathered, yellow legs and feet. The adult plumage is primarily bluish slate laced with black and the under cover is bluish slate.

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