D'uccle Thread

Yeah - My Millie when broody her first full year - I pulled off the first time & she went broody again in weeks and hatched out 3 peeps and was a brave and good mom .... of FULL SIZED peeps ! (since she was on a communal nest - she took on full sized eggs)

My d'Uccle will match my silkies for broodiness and commitment to hatch

Cool!

My first d'Uccle hen, Diccle, hatched four wheaten maran chicks (they are a fast maturing breed in case you are not famileir with them) within a few weeks she was being followed by four chicks bigger than her self.

LOL XD My friend had a game bantam hen that raised turkeys and by the time they even hatched they were pretty big for her XD You'd see really big birds with a hen that's two times smaller than them XP

None of my D'Uccle hens go broody for more than a couple days, which I am thankful for. I don't like having broody hens because I feel so bad taking eggs from them!

Whenever I had broody hens there WASN'T a way to take the eggs. They would sit on them 24-7!
