silver laced wyandotte

Did I end up with a Wyandotte rooster? they're all approximately 4 months old. here you can see a female (behind the silkie) and the bird in question in front. it's started to crow, but a really weak and garbled sounding crow, so I thought at first it was just an androgenous hen taking up the...

Hi all, I ended up with 4 roosters from the Lavender Orpington bin at TSC and one of them is just such a sweet boy I'm thinking of keeping him. I have a mixed flock and I'm curious if anyone has any experience with crossing a LO rooster with any of the following: - white cochin - black cochin...

Hi again chicken friends! I’m ready for another round of… you guys telling me I don’t have a pullet 😋 But am I crazy - do SLW pullets have green in tails?! Or just cockerels…… “she” is 8 weeks Thanks again!

These two are stumping me. I've read conflicting sexing info regarding hackle feather shape, wattles and combs and I'm questioning if they are both roos because of this or just one of them or neither. One has rounder hackle feathers and a flat comb area with a wattle and they are very pink...

I got these chicks a couple days ago from Tractor Supply and when I got home I searched the breed up and the chicks looked a little different. At the store the bin they had these chicks in said “Colombian Silver Laced Wyandotte” it also had a picture of silver laced Wyandottes. I asked for 3 of...

Hello! I'm hoping some of the experts here can help me sex these 6-7 week old Silver Laced Wyandotte chicks. These were straight run from a hatchery. I purchased 4, and one of them is definitely a pullet (not pictured) based on no waddles, darker comb, lacing on neck, etc. The other 3 are...

I have three 8 week old light brahmas and a silver laced Wyandotte and 2 light brahmas who are 7 weeks old. I’m afraid almost all of them are roosters. What do you think? Sorry for so many pictures. I probably should have split into 2 posts. First chicken - white tag - Lee - 8 weeks Second...

Hello, BYC friends! I have 2 silver laced wyandotte pullets (presumably) that are 3 weeks old today. I also have 2 black giants (2 weeks old), 3 cochins (3 weeks), and 2 easter eggers (2 weeks). I read that SLWs tend to mature slower than other breeds, but mine are nearly double the size of the...

Hello Chicken Fam! So I ordered my chicks from Cackle Hatchery, their City Town Special- 3 where I can order 3 of the breeds they offer, and I bought an Easter Egger, Blue laced Wyandotte and a Silver Laced Wyandotte. Well, I ordered 3 and received an extra Silver Laced Wyandotte. From the very...

Hi all can someone please tell me if I have Roos or pullets please they are 12 week old Silver Laced Wyandotte. Tia

I have three hatchery SLW. The one single comb I feel is obvious rooster. The other two I think one may be a rooster one a pullet. Any input? I got them end of February

I am fairly certain the large light brama is a cockerel. Big feet. Larger than the rest. Comb coming in. Has the black collar. The other two unsure. The one that kind of has a black collar I’m 50/50. The outlier I believe to be a pullet. Any thoughts? Also the other black and white guys in...

Hi everyone, I have a silver laced wyandotte who turns 1 in a few days. She is just coming out of her first moult, and we are noticing that all the new feathers on her back are double laced! I have attached some pictures from before her moult and now. I have done some research by I can't find...

Some of y'all convinced me to start Silver Laced Wyandotte thread, so here goes! Come support and join me! Silver Laced Wyandotte (SLW) chickens are the parents of all the Wyandotte chicken kind. All other patterns and colors of the Wyandottes that we are familiar with today all originated...
