Congrats on the beautiful hens! I was planning to get 2 MF d'Uccle chicks but my husband says only autosexed chicks so we don't have to rehome a cockerel. So we are picking up 2 55 flowery - a silver and gold- on Tuesday. I had one that died last month at only 2 months old..I think she had Marek's. Died the day the St. John's wort came in the mail. Anyways have fun with Omelette and Scrambles!

I have 3 silkies and 1 polish.
1 is a blue silkie and 2 are white paints.
The polish is a definite cockrel and is tormenting my lil silkies pitifully!

This is Milli (yep I named the two white paints after Milli n Vanilli duo from what 90s that lip sang at awards!) She has never wanted anything to do with anyone LOL.

This is the sweet paint bearded silkie (Vanilli) the polish has really given a hard time..and she has lost some weight. I thought she was sick (IB or respiratory illness) but she seems to be doing fine now except for trying to escape polish attacks.

And this is Mango. I've always thought Mango might be a cockrel because since 4 weeks old he and polish would stare each other down and then bump chests! Now Mango just runs away from polish like the other silkies do.

And then there was Polish...yeah I named him Polish - only thing that kept coming to mind!

I was always very partial to Polish...I guess cause he was the only different one in my lil flock of 4...and he was just too cute following me around n what not. BUT NOT ANY MORE! HE IS A RAGING HOROMONAL IRRITATING lil SNOT!
So my favorite is definitely silkies...but I would love a cochin and d'Uccle!!

I had the same thing with not wanting cockerel. I already have 2 roosters, and I can't have any more. So, I actually got these girls from a member here on BYC. She raised them until we were sure that they were girls.

(I'm sorry about your hen. )
