 Meet the Cochins:

Butterscotch (Hoppy)​

A family favourite who sustained a foot injury as a chick and now has a limp.  This doesn't stop her from getting around!

​​Has a sweet, gentle personality and is a very light buff.  She is Truehearts' most reliable layer.

​Chai​

Is a big and beautiful Cochin hen who is a recent addition to our flock.​

​Dilmah​​

Our up-and-coming Cochin rooster, Dilmah is quite the alpha male but loves to look after his girls.
