Baby Chicks: Mille Fleur d'Uccle Bantam Female Reviews

4.7 Rating 63 Reviews
I didn't try too hard to be creative with her name, lol, but she is the best little chicken. She is very talkative and always wants me to pick her up and hold her for a few seconds when I come into the coop. She will be a year old soon and I adore her. I am almost considering getting a Mille Fleur rooster because I love her so much and she does occasionally go broody, not as much as my silke bantam though. I highly recommend this breed.

I have tried different rooster. My mile fleur produces babies that look healthy but have bad scissor beak and end up after a month slowly deteriorating and not able to walk or eat, every baby she's hatched I have had to full. I will never hatch from her again.

It’s always nerve racking waiting on that shipment to arrive, so I ordered in a warm month. They all arrived healthy! 4 weeks later they are all still good. My duccle is so adorable and curious! Has all the features that she should, good looking pure breed.

Named by my granddaughter, French Fry is my favorite of my 5 back yard birds. This breed seems to have the sweetest disposition of the breeds i’ve owned (buff Brahma, Cochins, Aracaunas - all bantams). While she’s the smallest of the flock, French Fry can be one tough cookie, often dominating whatever treats I give them (mealworms is a real crowd pleaser). But with people, she’s the friendliest and most docile. Since she loves being indoors, i’m glad she only makes tiny poops! She does have a diaper, but I rarely trouble her with that. My son built an indoor coop for her, so she enjoys a good part of the day outdoors with the other girls, but likes to sleep inside. Waking up to a chicken who’s decided to share my pillow is the happiest way to start my day! I would choose this breed again and again - very very sweet, plus she’s simply stunning.

Peanut is 17 weeks old and a riot to watch. Her sister Eva is a porcelain d'uccle and both are super tame, friendly, great fliers and curious. She is not afraid to mix it up with her flock and is an apt enough flier that she can get out of trouble when she needs to. Total lap chicken and personality plus. Recommended as a pet.

We are now on our third one of the female sadly lost two last year. All of them have been a very curious personalty and the most recent one from Spring loves to come see what I am doing when I am in their yard and likes to talk. The previous one won a blue ribbon at the fair last winter for my daughter she shows for 4-H. Only issue is that you have to watch out for hawks if they are in the yard due to how small they are they are easy prey.

We ordered two females two years ago. One was sadly killed by a hawk, but our little Clover is the leader of or mixed breed flock. She is sweet,sassy,confident and smart. We have had great luck wit MPC sexing females too. I would order more in a heartbeat. Her eggs are small,but very tasty and she gives us 3-4 a week.

I ordered her from here and she's doing wonderfully! This girl is SHOW QUALITY. Nearly all my birds from MPC are. Also super friendly, but slow, so if hawks are a problem for you, keep confined or don't get them at all.
