Soldiers returning from China brought the first Cochin bantams to England in the 1860’s. They were known as “Pekin” bantams then and are still referred to as “Pekins” in many parts of Europe. Cochins are heavily feathered down the shanks and toes and appear to be much larger than they actually are. They are very gentle, excellent setters, require little space, and with their many color varieties are absolutely beautiful to look at. Cochins are the most popular of the feather legged bantams and one of our best setters. Each feather is rich, golden-bay laced with lustrous greenish-black creating a broad oval with a golden bay center. Extremely eye catching.

Customer Product Reviews
I recently bought a trio of bantams. Two of them were Golden Laced Cochins. They are very friendly, and the rooster, Chief, even lets you hold him. They are wonderful layers and setters. I recommend this chick to you as a layer and a pet.
-Caleb Hendricks
These are the best birds and they are very friendly.The rooster got me 4th place at the fairs crowing contest. I really recommend these chickens. And they are perfect with kids.
