BREEDING AND REARING LARGE COCHINS I recorded the following story
years ago, from the mouth of a very good Cochin breeder. I think it's still valuable,
because we know very well that Cochin fanciers have to manage a breed
which is very difficult to keep in top quality. By : Dirk de Jong (NL) 4 pages - 1 MB

CONCERNING POULTRY ~ Chicken feed ~ There are many brands of poultry feed offering a
complete line of chicken feed. The program runs from special food for
chicks to specific feed for laying hens, broilers, hens, ornamental

Conditions for a successful Breeding of the Scandaroon The Scandaroon with its
unique appearance among pigeons, has many typical breed characteristics
in its main features of head and beak shape, as well as in its majestic
body structure. These difficult to achieve breed characteristics are to
be maintained and, where needed, to be improved by the efforts of their
breeders and involved breed specialty clubs. By : Harald
