Hi all,
Can anyone assist in sexing these two Mille Fluer Belgian Duccles. They are 13 weeks old, and were sold to me a week ago as Pullets.

I queried the seller about one of them that is slightly darker with colouring. However she assured me that among the babies, these two didn’t grow up looking like the males.

Praying they are girls. I already have a boy :)

They look more like non standard quail, ecpecially the second pullet. Beautiful nonetheless. But I wouldn’t be happy if a breeder sold me birds that didn’t at least look like the colour they’re supposed to:

What is the difference between the two? I’m concerned now that you think I’ve been sold a different breed of bird. I don’t mind miss colouring’s but I wanted them to be duccles. Hmmm...

They are D’Uccle’s, but they don’t look to be of Mille Fleur colouring. I don’t mean to worry you, my aplogies
