Black Cochin chickens are a beautiful coal-black color. Cochins are heavily feathered from tip to toe. Their fluffy, downy feathers give them a massive and bulky appearance.
Cochin chickens date back to the late 1800s. These large, Asiatic breed originated in China and was called the Shanghai. Over the years, Cochins have been highly prized for exhibition.
