[nothingbutbirds]

thank you. i have breed d'uccles for 3 yrs im not exactly a expert but i do have some info on the breed but every bloodline is different and with each bloodline comes different expectations my bloodline is originally from hatchery stock i sold all the ones with faults and continued there i got them from tsc 3 yrs back got 4 threee females and one male i got lucky with that pick none of those four had a fault but sold some babies with faults i cant cull any its not fair 2 bring them in to the world and bring them out of it hrs after hatching but what ever u want to no ill try to help u in any way i also dabble in the genetics if u need help with that im working with silkies and ameraucanas also silkies r very broodie have a hen thats been laying for a week and a half and already broodie the hatchery that tsc got the d'ucckes from got them from a breeder si dont no what quality they were but so far mine r mostly show or all my older ones r yours look real nice to though i cant find any one in my area with d'uccles and i like buying from locals cuz shipping is sometimes very bad any ways ask any question u have ill help the best of my abilities
