“We have one Porcelain D'uccle and we just adore her. We have 3 Mille Fleur D'uccle chickens and would have one in every color variety if MPC offered it. These are by far my favorite breed of chickens. They are small,lay small eggs and only lay about 3x/week,but they have a larger than life personality. All of my d'uccles are inquisitive,smart,funny,and very sweet-they fly up to our shoulders when we are outside with them. I can't imagine my flock without these wonderful pet birds.”
“What can I say; adorable, huge feathered feet and perfect coloring. She is chatty, funny and demanding of her daily blueberries. She wants to be carried constantly and is the neighborhood favorite. She won first place at the fair too. Perfect fit for children. Love, love, love Evangeline.”
“We ordered 5 porcelain d‚Äôuccles with a shipment last September. They are now laying small, creme colored eggs. These bantams are sooo friendly. They are the friendliest in our flock. Two of my children each took two to the county fair to show for FFA. They are super easy to handle and beautiful. All four porcelain d‚Äôuccles won blue ribbons!”
“I've been keeping chickens for close to ten years, and Waffles the d'uccle has to be the cutest and friendliest chicken I've ever had. She is so excited to see people! My biggest worry is that she is always underfoot and sometimes moving in the coop can be hard because she wants to be so close to you! Seriously adorable. loves to be handled. She started laying about a month ago and has been very consistent. While the eggs are definitely smaller, the yoke doesn't seem to be that much smaller. Just seems like less egg white.”
“Little Wiglet is sweet and nosy, and despite being the smallest, she is not one to be bossed by her sisters. She enjoys being held, but doesn‚Äôt like it when we pick up any of the others; it doesn‚Äôt seem like jealousy as much as protectiveness. She‚Äôll scold us until we put her sister back in the pen with her. She was the first to get tail feathers, the first to perch, and the first to awkwardly fly. She has a sweet voice, like a songbird, and is the chattiest by far.
She’ll flap her little wings, and her sister Asthma, who is twice her size, will run over to bump chests with her, put her in her place, but Wiglet isn’t having any of it. She gives Asthma the stink eye, and pushes right back.
She already has ridiculously feathered feet, which gives her the look of wearing wide, bell-bottomed pants. She’s a stitch, and we look forward to a long summer, running around the yard like maniacs.
She‚Äôs tiny, and destined to be in charge.”
“This little girl is the sweetest and cutest hen that I have. I got her around September and while she was a babe she would be the first to run over and greet me. She would also try to jump into my hand if it was near the box. so much so she would jump on top of the water/food containers just to make sure I saw here and didn't just walk by without saying hello. I also got some polish hens at the same time and even though I tried to give them the same attention as babes they don't seem to have that same connection with me as she does. I named her dolly because I thought it was fitting. Oh and her color is just beautiful. whites, greys, and a slight purple tent. her beak has a slight slant to the side but I feel like it gives her more character. doesn't seem to effect her eating or drinking or anything.”
“We bought a male and two females this past spring I love the color on the male my daughter will be showing him this winter at the fair for 4-H. This one crows but is not as crazy as his brother the Mille Fluer we bought at the same time. He apparently loves to hear himself crow buy being small they are not as loud as a full size rooster.”
“Not to play favorites...but Eva is now two weeks old and the first to do everything. She's curious and the first to eat from my hand and allow me to lift her. She's quite an accomplished flier already so I give her plenty of branches to practice on. Highly recommended breed as a pet.”
