Description
If you have been looking for a visually striking and docile chicken to have on your property, the team at Cackle Hatchery® is here to help. The Golden Laced Cochin Standard is a beautiful feather legged bird that is large, soft and has a friendly temperament. You can expect these chickens to lay either small or medium sized eggs, so do not be fooled by the size of the bird itself. It also has feathered legs. This is a very hard to find color of the standard cochin and there are very few breeders in the USA. Cackle Hatchery added some new bloodlines to their flock from Roland Doerr in 2009 to maintain the size of this beautiful chicken. For more details about this poultry breed or the others we offer please contact Cackle Hatchery®!
Many people who like this breed of chicken also like the miniature version of the breed, the Golden Laced Cochin Bantam Chicken.

I ordered 3 silver, 3 golden and 3 buff cochin. I received 4 silver, 4 golden, and 3 buff which was great except I ended up with only 1 hen (golden) out of the 11 received!!! I’m incredibly disappointed. For the most part all were healthy except one buff but they still all have survived to 16 weeks. Most were pretty chill except the silvers. They have been absolute jerks from the start. Would’ve been happier if the hen to roo ratio was better.

I ordered some Golden Laced Cochins last year (2022) and this year all of the hens went broody. I had placed another order for 10 more chicks this year and two of the hens adopted the chicks as their own which made it the easiest chick raising experience for me. I would definitely recommend these birds!

I ordered from Cackle Hatchery because I ordered a number of chicks from them 40 years ago & was very pleased with all the babies I received. This time, I ordered 10 buff cochins & 10 golden laced cochins. I received a total of 22 babies, all of which were healthy & frisky! In the parking lot of the post office, I transferred them into a larger box dipping each of their beaks into water so they would learn to drink. I gave them chick starter food & then drove them home. My (wonderful) husband had constructed a 3′ x 4′ brooder box for them which he had put on wheels. I put them in this (pine shavings on the bottom) gave them larger containers of food & water, turned on their ceramic heat lamps, and watched them eat, drink, and zip around for a while until they all fell asleep. That was 2 1/2 weeks ago. All are doing great and rapidly outgrowing their box. Thank you very much, Cackle Hatchery! Can’t wait to show them off to the neighbors when they’re old enough to go outside.

Golden Lace Cochins
We purchased these beautiful birds almost 6 months ago. They are very quiet birds. The roosters we have are gorgeous. Very happy with this breed.

Beautiful, healthy chickens
We kept 3 golden laced and 3 buff cochins out of the group we bought. These have all grown to be beautiful, healthy birds.

Excellent Flock Protector
I received my Golden Laced Cochin as part of an unsexed rainbow assortment of Cochins. The Golden Laced Rooster was not the largest, but was the most dominant & became a capable protector of the flock (not aggressive to people though). He became a beautiful bird. I would order again.

Absolutely The Best

Best Birds In My Coop
This breed is among the best in my mixed-breed coop. They are fairly substantial in size and grew faster than most of the birds. Additionally, they have beautiful plumage which they have maintained well, and a very gentle temperament. Their feathery feet are really quite attractive and distinctive.
One of mine which was supposed to be a hen showed up as a rooster, which was alright. He was very large and extremely attractive, and maintained order exceedingly well in the coop. Unfortunately, city ordinances don’t permit for a rooster in town, so he ended up gracing the supper table, where he also did an admirable job.
A very fine breed which I will certainly be buying again.

EXCELLENT
I purchased some chicks for my daughter’s fair project. They arrived healthy and fast. She won 1st place with her Golden Laced Cochin Rooster at the county fair- judge said that if she keeps his feet feathers in show quality he is definitely Grand Champion Quality!!!

THANK YOU!
I just received my chicks in the mail today. I was very nervous of ordering online… my post office is pretty rural and normal mail can be difficult to receive… much less live mail!! My chicks showed up happy and healthy! The post office attendants were laughing at their vigor from inside the box! The overall condition easily surpasses that of the chicks I have purchased at my local feed store. I will absolutely only purchase from Cackle in the future! Thank you for taking such great care in the handling and delivery of our new chicks. I know they are just a handful of the thousands of chicks you see everyday, but to me, and am I sure most of us that mail order chicks, they are part of our clan and I appreciate you taking such great care in doing everything possible to get them here safely!

Cust Response
Just wanted to say that the Standard Golden Laced Cochins and the Standard Barred Cochins I ordered and received back in April are looking just beautiful! Very beautiful chickens, with great feathering! I am pleased with both breeds, and am especially excited about the standard sized Barred Cochins because it was only when I saw them on your list of cochins did I realize that the Barred even existed in the standard size! Thank you again, I would and do recommended your hatchery to my friends and acquaintances.

Chicks arrival
For Mother’s Day I wanted Cochins but I didn’t want to order from this other hatchery so I hit the net and found your site. Needless to say I was very leary about ordering, but my son ordered 15 of them for me as a present. Well they came in this morning to my Post Office here and when I put them in the brooder only one really wanted more than a mouthful and there were 17 of them in there. They were robust and all alive. None “off color” sort of speak and chirping their heads off. I put the light on them and they pecked at the food a bit then settled down. All in all I am completely overjoyed at the care in shipping and the condition of the little ones. Now I know you don’t personally check each and everyone but I appreciate the care with which you must give the eggs/chicks. From now on you will be our supplier for bantams and other species and I shall make sure anyone I come across that is thinking of getting some orders from you!! Thank you again for such great chicks. Blessings to you and yours,
