Brown Red is her color. Not sure how common it is over there. The only mention I could find on the Australian breed club was that they have brown red in the US which I thought was odd. If she has feathered legs, she's a D'Uccle

She reminds me of a Dutch Bantam. View attachment 2477414

Feathered legs are not the only difference between D'Uccles and D'Anvers.

D'Uccles have feathered feet in Australia. They are a big deal there.

I didn't mean it was the only difference ^^ But its an important one and I can't see her feet in those two photos, what I meant was only it shouldn't be hard to tell the difference cause ones got feathered legs and the other doesnt ;D

I can't see her legs or feet, but I would agree that she looks like a Brown Red d'Uccle if they aren't clean.

To clarify, yes, she has feathered legs BUT very little of the feathering, like, only some, but still some, if you know what I mean

I've been searching the net frantically for Brown red pics. My friend @FluffyBottomBantams said that colour is EXTREMELY rare! Here is the only pic FluffyBottomBantams could find:

Thoughts?

if she has feathered legs, she's a D'Uccle

She has such a D'Anver build though, and minimal feet feathers. But, still, feet feathers I guess.

Is she worth showing?

 

[Rhodebar Lover]

Her variety doesn't seem to be recognized in Australia. So I don't think she could ever do too well showing. D'Anvers have rose combs, which she does not so she's not pure D'Anvers for sure. Maybe a mix, but I would go with D'Uccle

In this case I'd say she's a D'Anver/d'Uccle mix then.
