In many places where space is limited, the Cochins are found convenient guests; they can put up with worse accommodation, and require less Space than almost any other race. I do not mean to say that they will thrive the better for confinement, neither that fowls in general will pine and die if kept in a narrow range; all fowls are better for having ample space; but in cases where their liberties are necessarily abridged and more careful ten'ding is required to counterbalance want of field-room, the Cochin can bear captivity better than any other fowl.
