Mille Fleur D’uccles

I’m thinking a roo and 2 hens but that may be wishful thinking.. only ones comb is pinking up tho

@Katieskerlong my own MFd’U cockerels combs pink-up a lot earlier than the pullets (approximately 3 weeks). The pullets combs change color when they’re close to laying. It looks to me, like one cockerel (unless you have one late to develop). Very cute chicks.

Okay sweet! I won’t be super surprised if one’s a late bloomer but I do think I have at least one hen for sure. The one rooster is already very obvious tho haha

Would love to see more photos as they mature. My goodness! They’re so cute!

They remind me of the 3 I had in 2004.

Can’t believe that was 21 years ago…seemed like only a couple of years

They’re so beautiful!

My girls are pushy, pulling at my clothes, pecking on my boots, and wanting all of the attention. They’re such a wonderful, friendly breed.

My friend kept the girls and named them Merry and Pippin. The cockerel a lady and her mom picked him up. The porcelain ones I’ve had were a bit skittish. I should try Mille fleurs again one day.

I hope you do! Mine are Mille Fleur. I’ve never had any Porcelains. If you ever raise them again, please post photos!

Absolutely! I’ll tag you in it if you don’t mind. I don’t normally tag people because someone removed their tag on another social media site but thought I’d ask since you suggested the photos so it’d be easier for you to find them

Of course I don’t mind. Yes, please tag me! I appreciate it.
