I wasn't sure I'd like them but have found them to be attractive and friendly so far. Hardy robust little birds.

I like everything about it except how it looks right now. I know it lays decently. It is a great part of my great waterfowl flock.

Help! Are these blue breda polish chicks? The breeder isn't even sure but out of the 5 Belgium Bearded Mille Fleur eggs I had shipped and hatched, 4 look like these big Oafs and one is small and Cinnamon colored. I asked the breeder and they don't even know for sure but said they did have blue breda polish.

These are standard size chickens right?

Thanks you much I don't know what I would do without BYC people.

They are also fairly aggressive more so than the little Cinnamon chick.

I think they are supposed to look like this little girl.... see how small she is. ?

The first two look like mixes probably with a Mille Fleur D'uccle. They have a little extra fluff on their heads so they probably have Polish in them. The second little one is a Mille Fleur D'uccle baby. They're all very cute

Oh! I did some research and Blue Bredas are pretty rare. If the breeder doesn't breed them then they're mixes. They look like they could be breda chicks though
