    What color is my d'Uccle Rooster?

    Hi! I have a year old d'Uccle Roo that I got from a TSC bantam bin last year. His coloring has confused me since he started getting tail feathers. he mostly looks Porcelain, but then his tail throws me. I know absolutely nothing of chicken color genetics, but in dogs I didn't think a true blue...

    ANY ideas? Porcelain D’uccles

    I cannot keep cockerels! I only have two chicks so I’m hoping there is at least one pullet. They are coming up on 3 weeks. I know that is too early but any suspicions are appreciated. I tell them apart with the colors on their head. It’s just watered down food coloring and will grow out with...

    3 months old now!

    I had one of my D'uccles turn out to be a roo. He started crowing recently. This is my other D'uccle who hasn't started crowing and I am wondering if she may actually be a hen? Just wanted some other opinions! The feathers I thought were saddle feathers are actually coming off and being...

    I’m the first to admit I’m SUCH a newbie when it comes to the genetics of the color varieties of d’Uccles, but I’m wanting to learn more as i have some color variations I’m wanting to breed one day and I’m hoping to have a better understanding of what exactly I’ll be producing by doing so! So...

    Possible D’uccles?

    Got these as part of the bantam assortment at TSC, but I’m not sure what they are. Hatched 3/1, feathered feet. 4 toes. Chick 1, who I think is a rooster

    Are these both porcelain d'uccles?

    Hello! I just picked up these two. I'm unfamiliar with d'uccle colors and I'm not sure if this is just variation within the color or if the one without grey spots is a different color variety? Thanks for the help.

    Half blind chicken reintegration??

    Recently I found one of my d'uccle banty hens with a pretty bad eye infection and treated her with eye medication and antibiotic. Her eye improved to the point where she can open it mostly with ease and theirs no more puss coming from it. But it is faded and there is no reaction from that side...

    Between breeding a porcelain, a mille fleur, and a black mottled d'uccle which color would be dominant?

    I would love to learn more about color genetics and have had a hard time narrowing down info. If I crossed my black mottled d'uccle hen with a porcelain rooster, what would the chick's color likely be? What about a mille fleur x black mottled? Thanks in advance!
