Thanks for the info....do you happen to have a picture of a EE next to a D’Uccle so I can see size comparison. ? Could a EE hen be kept in the group of d’Uccles do they go broody? I just like their eggs

I am getting a 3m old cockerel from one breeder and a 1year old trio from another, when the 3m old cockerel reaches a year I was going to try and pair him with the spare hen. It never snows here .
