Mine are just 4 weeks, so judging by the comb differences in your chicks I can cautiously presume my chicks are pullets

here is my porcelain who is a little younger than the millie fluers. I'm hoping it's a girl too. She is in her ugly stage

I have noticed that my Mille Fleur D'Uccle roo does not have quite the coloration I have seen on some.. he does not have a lot of white speckling. He is purebred from a local woman, but I have not seen any of her birds. I had another chick, a girl, that dies at about 8 Weeks from an unknown cause and she had quite a bit more white.

Just curious. Here he is. This is Feisty.

He is nice, he will get more white on him as he gets older. Mille's get more and more color as they get older.

Hi, I have a quick question about Mille fleur d'uccle breeding. When breeding 2 mille fleurs together do all the chicks come out mille fleur in color?

I have a hatchery trio that I got by accident and well they kind of made themselves a place in my heart. So cute. So I now have 3 itty bitty chicks and for some reason the colors don't look right to me. Although it has been about 7 months since my adults were babies so maybe I have just forgotten what they looked like.
