Partridge

A variant of Cochin (Gallus gallus domesticus)

Partridge

Intricately pencilled brown-and-black hens with a richly coloured red/black cock; one of the most demanding show patterns.

Keeper tips for this variant

Triple pencilling is hard to get right — keep separate cock and hen breeding pens (double mating) because the male and female patterns need different parents.

This page covers the Partridge variant. For full husbandry, water params, diet and health —General care: Cochin
