Belgian D'Uccle or Belgian D'Anver both qualify, but quail is a color of only the D'Anvers. There is a long running D'Anver thread here now. You may want to join it. phoebs, you probably have D'Uccles, not D'Anvers.

I have both porcelain and mille fleur D'Anvers.

 

[phoebs]

yes i see she is deffinatly not a d anver because she has feathery feet! i think she is a d uccle
thanks so much for your help

With the feathered feet I would agree not a d'Anver. However, a d'Uccle would have a single comb. The hen you have pictured appears to have a rose comb. Is it possibly a mix?

 

[phoebs]

specky is a purbred with a single comb

This is Muffin, she has horrible feathers

This is Muffin and pearls together. Muffins feathers have always been horrible and she has never layed an egg in her life. Muffin and Pearls came from the same hatchery, they're the same breed, and the same age. What's wrong with Muffin?
