shes a quail. as for breed really need a pic of her standing and one from either top or head on. i'm looking for a beard and cant really tell in that pic if there is one or not but it does look like there is one

Quail isn't a recognized color for D'Uccles. I, too, would like to see a pic of her standing as well as a better pic of her comb. From that angle her comb doesn't look like a true single. She might be a D'Anvers/D'Uccle cross. Which could explain the quail coloration.

Oh, and the color doesn't become part of the breed when you are entering. The breed would be Belgian Bearded D'Uccle and the variety would be AOV (if she meets all other breed requirements and is not a recognized color).

She is Quail in color, but I wouldn't show her as Quail isn't recognized for d'Uccles. To me she looks like a d'Uccle mixed with a Quail D'Anver,
