RED COCHIN CHICKS (FREE SHIPPING)

Red Cochin chicks are primarily red in color with white on the wing tips, chest and abdomen. They have single combs and feathered yellow legs and feet. All the plumage of Red Cochins is an even shade of red. Cochins have a notably large body, with soft and loose feathers that accentuate their size. First known as Chinese Shanghai Fowl, Cochins first came to America in 1845. They were originally known for their prolific production of brown eggs, but selection was later directed towards the production of fowl and roaster meat. Today, since other breeds are more efficient meat producers, they are primarily kept for their unique appearance.
