What that person has... is actually Mille Fleur Old English Game Bantams... definately NOT D'uccles.

I agree, can't get much better than that!    You are really going to have your hands full with them once they hit a few weeks old.

Hey my fellow d'uccle lovers...I have a listing under the egg bidding section and have had very little response.

 

I am willing to take low offers, if you know of anyone that would like some good fertile eggs from good stock (only mille fleur) let me know.  I hate to see my eggs going to waste every week.  

 

I shipped 15 to dsfrango in CT and he reported that every single one was developing!  I pack them extremely well.

 

Thanks Guys,

 

Nathan

Welcome the newest members of my D'Uccle flock which I've recently bought from someone through craigslist of $10 for both hen and rooster.

What is a fair price for a bantam?  Grown hens anyway?  Mine are booted bantams BTW and not the d'Uccles I thought they were.

It depends on your area and show quality.

SQ self-blues are rare, especially in my area. Hard to part with, too! Millies are a tad more common.

At Crossroads, d'Uccles of all colors were going for $25 a pair or more. These were mature birds, ready to breed.

I ask $5 each per chick, up to about 3 weeks old. After that, it depeds on show quality.

Not sure about booted bantams....
