Buff Cochin Chicks — UNSEXED — 1–5 Days Old
Buff Cochins are known for their calm, affectionate personalities and impressive fluffy appearance, making them a favourite for families, backyard flocks, and anyone wanting chickens that are as lovely to look at as they are to keep. Despite their large size, they are typically quiet, easy-going birds that integrate well with other breeds.
Important care note: These chicks still require supplemental heat. Provide a heat source (brooder lamp or plate) set to about 35°C at chick level during the first week, then reduce by about 2–3°C each week until fully feathered (typically 5–6 weeks). Ensure a safe, draft-free brooder with clean bedding, fresh water, chick starter feed, and room to move away from the heat if they get too warm.
