Bantam d’Uccles

Tiny, feather-footed and absolutely packed with charm, Bantam D’Uccle chickens are a beautiful choice for keepers who love a pretty little bird with a sweet nature and plenty of personality. With their fluffy legs, neat size and eye-catching markings, they bring a lovely ornamental touch to the garden while still being proper little chickens at heart.

Bantam D’Uccles are generally known for being friendly, curious and easy to enjoy, making them a lovely option for families, new keepers and anyone looking for a smaller breed with lots of character. They are not the biggest egg layers in the flock, and their eggs are small, but they more than earn their keep with their gentle ways, beautiful looks and cheerful garden pottering.

Because of their feathered feet, Bantam D’Uccles do best in a clean, dry, well-kept coop and run, especially through the wetter UK months. Give them safe housing, fresh bedding and plenty of interesting space to scratch about in, and these delightful little bantams will soon become firm favourites in the flock.
