Doesn't hurt to call your hatchery and ask- maybe they have extras they can sell you.

Hello fellow D'uccle lovers! It's been awhile since I posted on this thread, been busy getting ready for christmas.
Anyways, just wanted to know what you thought of my D'uccles? Or is it still to early to tell?

look good i am no expert

my thought on the white ones is that they might get dirtier quicker than a darker color

I thought I'd post this pic of a Self Blue Booted Bantam that I found on the web. I think it shows the difference between Belgian Bearded d'Uccles and Booted Bantams. Notice the lack of beard, the large wattles and the form. The foot feathering reminds me of Sultans.

Are you referring to my chicks? Leghorns don't have feet feathers. And the pic that I posted of the chick with wattles is a Booted Bantam.
