Blue Laced Red Wyandotte THREAD!

[kafernator]

Hiya! They are just shy of two months old. They have some time yet before they show their colors completely is what I understand. I like what I see so far though! And they are good boys too so far!

I am in Bend, OR and will have some extra BLRW cockerels. They are 3 mos old (hatched 3/20/16). Looks like I have 3 boys and just 1 girl, so definitely can't keep all the boys.

Any guesses on if this is a roo or hen ?? I was told approx 5 weeks old. Sorry about picture quality :/

Hello, I am in Oregon and had recently bought 4 straight run blrw chicks from the local Winco. Almost 6 weeks today and had 2 really good looking blue cockerels with great lacing and 2 splash pullets with less than desirable markings. This morning my puppy got in the outdoor pen and killed the 2 cockerels. I'm interested in procuring more birds locally whether as adults, chicks or hatching eggs. I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction.

Sorry about your loss.

Whereabouts in Oregon are you?

Are you looking for more cockerels to replace the lost ones?

I have black and splash cockerels in the 6-8 week age rage (also in OR) for $1.

My pullets in black and splash are sold, and my blues are not for sale. Edit: I might have 1-2 splash pullets (5wk)

I do have fertile eggs for sale. This is my thread where you can see photos of my birds: https://www.backyardchickens.com/t/1105337/blue-laced-red-wyandotte-hatching-eggs They are not hatchery birds, they are carefully bred and of exceptional quality (in my humble opinion)

Blues by the looks of them unless the lighting is off. Any grey will blue up like the first hen below. Blacks are BLACK The Blues lighten as they get older. See two of my blacks in 2nd and 3rd pic below. I think it is a beautiful color combo myself

Hello, I am new to wyandottes and am needing some help sexing. These are just over 12 weeks old and with the exception of one pullet all the combs/waddles look the same, but the feathering is different. Am I correct the the pointy saddle feathers are Roos and the round ones are pullets? I can usually tell by the pattern but one I know is a Roo has more lacing than other roos Ive seen. the first 2 pics are of what saddle feathers tell me is a hen but her comb and waddles are just as red/large as the roo.
