Everyone;s D'uccles are so beautiful! The black mottled are so dramatic, though I admit, my heart still belongs to the mille fleur. What a captivating breed. Thank you all for sharing pictures of your darling birds!

Are D'uccle roos loud crowers? I'd imagine not, at their size? It's hard to judge from a YouTube video. Such handsome boys!

I have a 9 week old roo and pullet that are a color I have not ever seen before. Not quite grey, not quite cream, not quite white...but in between all of them. The color doesn't show in pictures. Any ideas? I have a lavender hen whom I am assuming is the mom. Roo's could be Millie or Golden Neck.

My d'Uccle boys have always been the loudest, high-pitch, obnoxious little buggers out of all my roosters.

Loud, obnoxious crowers? Eeek. Maybe we'll only keep a hen, then. The roos look so very dear. Oh, well. I'm accustomed to our ancient OEG bantam mix roo, not really loud, and crows seldom. The fun part with a D'uccle roo is he might be hand-tame, as I would be getting them as day old chicks and raising them (with gentle, regular handling) in the enclosed front porch room until old enough to transition outdoors.
