About this deal
You can also easily domesticate them and find that they feel more at home in your home than in the coop. These qualities make them excellent pets. Cochin bantams tolerate cold weather and confinement well. Today, the Belgian Bearded d’Uccle is considered rare, but it continues to be popular among those who appreciate its unique looks and friendly personality. Pros:
Not broody: This breed is not known to go broody easily, which is an advantage if you’re not planning on hatching eggs. Don’t like muddy environments: Keeping them in a dry run is necessary because of their feathered feet.Not suited for all weather types:Their fluffy plumage does not like wet or cold weather, as it’s not waterproof. They also don’t like muddy and wet environments. Keep their run dry. Cover your cooled egg in PVA glue using the paintbrush, leaving a portion of the egg free of glue (as shown). They are very friendly, calm, and docile birds and interact very well with people – they will follow you around and ‘talk’ to you.
Cochins are very cold hardy thanks to all their fluffy feathers, their feathered feet, and their small comb and wattles. The large fowl Cochins do need plenty of coop space and low roosts to accommodate their large size. Despite this, Cochins adapt well to confinement as long as they are provided with plenty of coop and enclosure space. Because their feathers are so fluffy they do best in warm, dry climates where their feathers can stay nice and dry.Egg production: They are good egg layers, and their egg color is somewhere between light brown and pink. Docile and sweet: They are generally calm and gentle, making them a good choice for families with children. They are often curious and enjoy human interaction.
