What does COCHIN mean in Scrabble?
noun
A large, heavily feathered breed of domestic chicken that has feathers growing down its legs.
The breed takes its name from Cochin China, the region from which the birds were first brought to the West. Poultry keepers prize a cochin for its fluffy, rounded look and its calm temperament more than for any record of laying. Because the feathering is so dense, the bird looks even bigger than it actually is.
