All the hatcheries call them New Hampshire reds, but the actual name is just New Hampshires. Serious breeders HATE it when someone calls them reds. The only breed with a color in the name is the Rhode Island Red.

You've prolly found them by now, but I saw pics at this site while looking for other stuff: http://chickenpic.blogspot.com/2008/10/belgian-duccle-belgian-bantam-mille.html
It says the mille fleur d'uccle (Belgium Bantam) lay very small white eggs. They're cuties, Chad! Good Luck!

To the OP: in answer to your question: a d'uccle Mille Fleur is a bantam. As stated, a Mille Fleur is a Pattern not a breed. You can have Mille Fleur Cochin. My D'Uccle lays light pink eggs. Kinda smallish. Here is a picture of her. Her name is Mille ( Not very creative but yeah...) the next one is of Honey she is only 6 weeks. (Ignore the Silkie in the picture, she is the one on the left. This is the best pic. I got right now of her.) Her Mille Fleur Pattern won't come in until after her first molt. Does this help?
