Sold as a “d’uccle”

Hi - I just bought this chicken advertised as a Belgian D’Uccle pullet. She has a little bit of a beard but other than that, I can see no other D’Uccle feature. I’m wondering if she is primarily Appenzeller. She stands well above the pekin pullets also pictured. Thanks in advance

Maybe it’s just a weird or different color? Or a mix?

Can you get a clear picture of it's legs?
Are you sure it isn't a male?
I don't know.

Yes, I’m really not sure. She’s also very upright and active (feisty!). When I got her home, she immediately flew the coop and then easily cleared our 1.8 back fence into the neighbour’s yard

That has crossed my mind. I’ll get a better picture of the legs and post shortly.

It's a pullet. Definitely not an Appelenzer. Could be D'Uccle mix, but obviously not pure.

Yeah I agree, d’uccle mixed with something else
