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. Buff Cochin bantam chicks are solid buff or straw colored with the heads and back being darker. The chest and abdomen is a lighter buff. They have single combs and feather, yellow legs and feet. Adult plumage is an even shade of rich golden buff throughout the entire surface.

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