In the world of showing and what is "correct," I don't think the Standard of Perfection says anything about how light or dark the roos face should be. I believe it is a matter of taste. I think he is very cute and I like the heavy white feathering, it frames his face well.

IMO, there is too much white, but you can always show him and see.
The standards say the front of the neck should be the same color as the breast. Although it does not specifically mention beard, I interpret the beard as part of the front of the neck.

I know that MF d'Uccles can be disqualified if there is a single all-white feather on them. The base color should be the red-mahogany.

They are "just" hatchery chicks, but I have a pretty cute litte roo that need some companionship .. so we'll see what we got!

As they Age, They tend to molt out more and more white. Is he an older bird?

My Favorite of my D'uccles - Mrs. Sweets. My Self Blues have been my favorites, not really because I love Blue, but all mine I have hatched have been super friendly.
