Update: One of our broodies mysteriously left the nest at day 18 so our other broody took over. We had 7 of 8 eggs hatch. The chicks are adorable and Millie is a great broody mama!

They are similar to a D’Uccles but they do not have feathered feet and comb is rose instead of straight. A couple hatcheries sell them and I’ve seen eggs for sale on EBay but I prefer to get chicks or eggs from local breeders so I thought maybe someone on here might raise them.
