Beautiful birds! I fell in love with the Belgians with my flock of Mille Fleur Barbu's from Ideal Poultry. I have 2 shipments of 6 on different dates coming from Greenfire. The Milles are so friendly and personable. Only my "Alpha" rooster is a jerk, but he is protecting his girls. He gets carried like a football time to time to remind him who pays rent.

Do you have any tips with this breed, and how have yours colored out as they have grown? Are they identifiable at a young age via their comb like Mille Fleur D'uccles?
 
i have to get updated pics. this is one rooster. I keep them in a flight cage. Hubby says I can't put them out with the other chickens. lol.

They have aged very well! My first run arrived healthy and alert, they are more flighty and cautious than any other chicks I have raised, which is strange. I have One yellow head which is looking to be a very pretty bird, one Brown head, and the rest seem like they will turn out like your chicks color.
 
does anyone know which rooster is more correct. Greenfire quail colored
