Can you keep D'uccle's in with a regular mostly standard flock?

My understanding is they are true bantams...meaning there is no "standard" size to them.....Help me out folks I'm still learning too....

I though I had read that before but wasn't sure...I hope I get more posts here as I would really like to buy some eggs soon to get them in the bator. Do you have any D'uccles and do you keep them in with a regular flock of standards?
 
I have four D'Uccle bantams, one is my only Rooster.

They are in a flock consisting of 13 standards. (4 are teens - 1 baby) I also have a baby Bantam Japanese, being taken care of by a big bottom standard mommy!

OH that is great news, I can go ahead and order them then. I have one Serama (one egg didn't make it) and I have to keep her/him separate from the standards...so I didn't want to add more that I would have to keep separated from the others. Thanks for your help
 
My d'Uccle does just fine with my standards. It's funny, its like they are so small my standards just ignore them! But when we intorduce similar sized birds theres always some pecking going on
