here are some pics of two young mille roos I am growing out for next season.

I tried getting pics today but my batteries died before i could get very many. Here are the two cockerels. The first one is from my F2 eggs, the second one came directly from tate at a couple months old.

Hi

I found this on craigslist and wanted to know if it was a good looking hen or not?

Thanks,

Those are pretty birds -- but they're mille fleur d'Uccles, not cochins.

 

[herbandteas]

are they full sized or bantams. Hard to tell in the picture.

Amazondoc is correct - they are D'uccles, which only come in Bantam - there are no Large Fowl D'uccles.

not sure who you are asking, but mine are bantams.

I did figure that out thanks guys!

Sorry if it's a silly question- I'm new to the MF birds. Is it just me- or do the roos tend to have mahogany, and the hens a lighter orangey color? Why is that?
