“I ordered my first frizzle Daisy from MPC in the summer. She is quite a hoot. She doesn't care about much other than treats, she will come full sprint from yards away and push the other girls (who are about 5x bigger than her) right out of the way to indulge on mealworms. She is sweet and minds her own business. Overall a great addition to my mixed flock. Everyone finds her very fun and amusing, especially when she runs to get treats. We have nicknamed her "The Mop".”
Thank you so much for this lively description of Daisy! We actually laughed out loud imagining her pushing her way through, flopping around like a mop! Being sweet and minding her own business (until being treat time) are great qualities to have in any chicken. Thanks for sharing this absolutely "fun and amusing" review!
Thank you so much for your lovely review! We're thrilled to hear that you ended up with two frizzled chicks out of three! They truly have such delightful personalities and unique appearances. We appreciate your support and hope you continue to enjoy your adorable flock!
Thank you so much for your review—and what a darling photo! We're so glad to hear you got frizzle feathers—such a fun surprise when they start to pop! It's always exciting to watch their unique look come together, and we're thrilled you're happy with her so far.
Wishing you lots of joy as she grows—she’s already a little stunner! Thanks again for choosing My Pet Chicken!
“I was so ready for her to NOT be frizzled because she looked almost identical to the other cochin bantam I ordered but then BAM! A week in and frizzled feathers just popped up out of nowhere. I would have loved her no matter what because she's really sweet and adventurous but what a bonus! These chicks are really lovely.”
“I ordered a frizzle but instead received one of these cochin bantams also she turned out all black not a single white spot of the mottled pattern I was hoping for.
I would post a photo but there is no option for that. Love her all the same but disappointed to end up with one showing neither of the genetic distinctions.”
We're glad to hear you love your little Cochin bantam, but we understand your disappointment in not receiving the frizzled, mottled pattern you were expecting.
While genetics can sometimes produce unexpected results, we always want our customers to be happy with their chicks. If you ever have any concerns about an order, please reach out to our team—we’re happy to help!
As for the mottled pattern, don’t give up hope just yet! Mottling often becomes more pronounced after each molt, so you may start to see some white feathering appear as she matures.
We have sent you a private communication as well so please feel free to reach back out to us! We are always happy to do our best to help!
