When will my Mille Fleur D' Uccle get her spots?

I was wondering the same about mine! She is such a tiny little thing, and her coloring is the same as yours. Only brown with the black, but no white. So I was wondering if maybe I was wrong about her being a mille fleur d'uccle. I so hope she does get some white spots because the ones I see on the web are so beautiful!! Here's a couple pics I took of her a few minutes ago... she is 6 weeks old





Everyone is years late asking if she ever got her spots lol. I too am every one but I can say my 8 week old cockerel has his white spots, my 8 week old pullet does not and shows no signs of them "appearing" as my boys did 🤷🏻‍♀️
 
Edit: I misread and thought you were talking about mille fleur leghorns rather than mille fleur d'uccle. I'll leave these up because while I don't know if the bantams look like this young at least you can see what one breeds mille fleur pattern looks like before their adult feathers.

I have 5 mille fleur Leghorns that are around 8 weeks old and they all have white dots on them. They are very tiny puffs feathers of white. Some more obvious that others. In person it's more obvious than one camera. But if you see the tiny single white feathers, that's what mine look like.

The question mark on some of my photos is because I was divvying up mille fleurs, red leghorns, and some separate cross breed chipmunks so I didn't know til the end.

This thread seems to be ageless. 😅
Mille Fleur d'Uccles change a lot between each juvenile molt. My 15 week-old is almost "complete", with her neck feathers being the last to come in as spotted.
