Description

When it comes to rare breed chickens, the professionals at Cackle Hatchery® have a lot to offer. We have more than 200 breeds to choose from, including the Barred Cochin Standard. This bird is one of the many color types of Cochins that we have available and it is notable for several reasons. This is a very large chicken with a lot of unique feathering and feathered legs. This chicken is also great around children, making it a perfect pet for the family farm. This is a very hard color to find of the standard cochin with very few breeders in the USA. We further improved our flock by adding some of Roland Doerr bloodline into our flock in 2009. Make a great show and exhibition type chicken. You can place your order today or you can call us for more information.

Many people who like this breed of chicken also like the miniature version of the breed (bantam), the Barred Cochin Bantam Chicken.

    Genuinely the most lovely chickens! Largefowl Barred Cochins from Cackles are outstanding in their docile nature, massive size, are great layers, and literally PERFECT for families with small children who want to hold them. All 3 girls layed through a literal polar vortex without any issues and didn’t succumb to any diseases, nor have issues in my dynamic cold and hot humid summer climate (just had a shady run and water like usual). I added some photos of them at various ages for reference. They are a permanent variety in my flock now, I’m extremely pleased and hope to see them go broody in the years to come. I ordered 3 straight run chicks in May 2024 and ended up with three gorgeous hens. I plan to purchase a rooster and more of this glorious Cochins! They’re here for the pets, the treats, the petting, I’m now here for any large fowl Cochin from here! Also pictured, my Cackles Blue Sumatra Pepe! Absolutely wonderful flock, rearing and excellent experience. Thank you, Cackle Hatchery!

    I absolutely am in love with Cochins. I’ve had both sizes bantam and now the large. I ordered Barred Cochins, Silver lace and Gold lace Cochins. This April 15th Everyone arrived happy and healthy in 2 days. Cochins are absolutely beautiful wonderful, sweet, friendly and absolutely so fun to watch. My girls are still too Young, but I know this breed makes exceptional mothers. I received a free rooster which I’m so thankful for he’s wonderful and sweet and his name is Lovey. These guys certainly do like to eat, but I let mine free range most of the day to help out.

    Ordered 3 Barred Cochin females (+ extras) and only one turned out to be female. We were so disappointed not to receive more hens, we ordered 10 (!) more (+ extras), and the 2nd time around we had even worse luck – only one hen again! So in total, 13+ chicks and only 2 were actually female. The two we have are adorable, round fluffy treasures that we LOVE, but I’d be really hesitant to order again, unfortunately.

    Ordered 3 chicks, received 4. Of the three cochin varieties we ordered (Barred, Blue and Partridge) the Barred by far has the most personality. Very comfortable around us and our dogs at only one month old. Curious and active. Coming from a background in poultry breeding I’m VERY impressed with the body structure/head structure of these chicks. These are strong, healthy young birds.

    Great Birds

    Great, beautiful, and wonderful mothers. My hen was only about 7 months old and she became broody and hatched out 7 chicks. They are great hens and let’s not forget the roosters! He is very protective of his hens but at the same time, he is very nice and gentle and likes to be held by humans. Great bred for first time chicken owners or if you live in cold areas like colorado

    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.
