D'Uccles vs D'Anvers...Differences in Personality?

[Quail_Antwerp]

Thank you speckledhen. I must confess, out of all of the breeds I own, they are my favorite! Fran fits in my hand almost perfectly! and her muffs aww the muffs!

I absolutely can't wait until they produce some little ones!!

My Mille Fleur D'Uccles are the clowns of my flock and the roo constantly chatters to his girls.

Both breeds are so cute! I appreciate all the input, guys.

I like the d'Anvers personally. Rose combs for cold weather and no feathers on the feet for when it rains. They were awesome little birds. I know you've seen my pair but here they are again.

D'Anvers by fare Ive had them they are soo calm and quiet!

They are real cuties! Sounds like they might be a good bantam choice when and if I get to that point.

You are right Cyn. I got some Mottled D'Anver eggs and they were VERY tiny. I would love Blue Quail eggs from you. That is the color chicks I tried to get from Ideal and all 4 times the chicks died with in a few days. I guess they are very sensitive to shipping. I think you should do it. Bantams are easy and don't eat much and they are very comical. I just love them.

What I would have to do is build an addition onto Suede's coop to house the Delawares, then the Firetower coop would be perfect for little ones since the pen is already wire-covered. I still have to get DH on board with this, if I decide to go ahead.
