D'uccles??

They look like hatchery quality d'uccles, actually none of the hens are colored really well. They are suposed to be gold in color, not red like the males, not overly white like the other 2.
But not booted bantams for sure. I'd pass and fine some better quality ones else where, they arent hard to find...
Good luck

True, but it looks like they do, just very weak ones, it's hard to tell for sure the pic is fuzzy. Also the roos breast shouldnt be black, just noticed that!

she is very young and that is why she does not have all of her white yet
 
why i keep a mixed flock and breeding pens if i see a mutt i think looks pretty i get it and toss in with mixed flock that is just for personal pleasure i think those birds are pretty id get them if they were priced like hatchery or lower not if they were priced like champion show birds
 
I thought D'Uccles were bearded and had foot feathers. Like this one of mine:

Is there a difference between D'Uccles and "booted bantams"?
 
Have no idea on correct color or showing but here are mine. I got 3 porcelain hens and a tri of golden necks free. I got the mille's at an auction about 5 or 6 weeks ago for $4.50 each. They have given me 1 egg which went into the incubator.

they look like chickens from different ages but not all chickens have same feathers. i have an older pair that looks like yours
 
Here is some pics of my milli hens. I lost the rooster last year and don't have any pics of him. And FYI these are Ideal hatchery stock.
