Hello and welcome to to my Coach House Cochins website. My name is Tim Lockett and I have been keeping this wonderful breed of poultry for some 18 years. On this website I will endeavor to impart my knowledge of this huge friendly breed and hopefully fill in some blank spaces regarding viewers knowledge of the Cochin breed.
I have kept many many other breeds of poultry including geese and ducks, but have found the Cochin breed the most rewarding and calming breed to be around.
I keep all six standardised colours of Cochin which are Black, Blue, Buff, Partridge, White, and Cuckoo. I am also working towards creating new feather patterns and colours of this truly endearing breed.
I will inform you about the known history and evolution from being imported as a utility breed to provide both abundant meat and eggs for human consumption, to the present day poultry show dandy. All pictures on this site are of my own birds from my own breeding pens (Often in them) Thank you for looking at my birds and website, I would be pleased to answer any questions, or discuss any observations. I have been lucky enough to have some lovely ladies like Dorinda Fontana and Elaine Oliver prepare and show some of the birds I have bred in a far better way than I could hope to do so . A big thank you from me to them!

Our Location
My wife Giselle and I keep our Cochins (And a few
other breeds) In a small village in the north west corner of Worcestershire, called Pensax. You can see chicken huts scattered around if you look carefully at the over head picture.
We welcome all chickeneers, whether wanting
fresh stock, hatching eggs or just for a chat about
Cochins or poultry in general. Check out my contact page
and get in touch if you would like to visit, so we can arrange a mutually convenient day and time.
I hope you enjoy my Cochins as much as I do.
