OK then...............






Wait for it.................



That would be a good choice!

Fantastic choice, @sunny_bellyboo ! Not only are d'Uccles flashy, but they're chock full of spicy personality.

You say you're ordering from Meyer Hatchery? While I love my Meyer birds, Eagle Nest Poultry's d'Uccles simply can't be surpassed as far as quality goes (considering these will be used for show). They're based in Oceola.

Myers Hatchery doesn't have d'Uccles so looks like I'm heading back to silkies, which is fine with me

I have d’Uccles and they are so pretty! But I have never seen show birds so mine might be ordinary. They are pretty friendly.

Silkies.
These boys are breeding stock from a SQ Silkie breeder I ordered hatching eggs from.View attachment 1990157

They have D'Uccles, I have their catalog they sent me. I've seen them on their website also. I can help if you want?

yes please because I went through, I searched them up, and there just appear to be no d'Uccles

 

[MysteryChicken]

The D'Uccles are located in their Bantam category.
There's a little tab on the right hand side of the site on the top, if you click it you'll reveal a yellow bar that says shop, click that, then select chickens, from there scroll til you find the Bantams, click bantams, & you'll find D'Uccles.

And also guys I realize I've been saying Myers hatchery the whole time, which is my mistake, I meant Meyer Hatchery
