Ok, I have two roosters, a Red Phoenix and a Rhode Island Red(I keep them in separate coops). I also have 3 hens, two RIR x SLW, and one California White. I was wondering what I would get by crossing some of these breeds. Like what would I get if I crossed the RP x CW? Or the RP x (RIR x SLW)?
Hi! I’m a SAHM of toddlers and we got 4 chicks last year, grabbed them from feed store on our way home from our first pandemic grocery run. We’re on outskirts of Houston . Shocked they survived, as we had lost chicks to cats before. Anyways we have two australorp and two silver laced...
About 4 months ago I got two RIR x SLW pullets.They were 5 months old when I got them.So this makes them 9 months old and they still haven't layed any eggs.I feed them egg layer pellets and a little bit of grower feed, and still.... no eggs?!?!? What should I do...
Hi everyone! I recently got a bunch of chicks, and ended up with two accidental roosters. I'm hoping to rehome my SLW cockerel, he's super sweet and was hand raised. I just have far too many boys!
I'm located in Southern California, in the LA suburbs (on the border of Ventura County).
Hi! I’m new here, this is my first time raising chicks on my own, my mother previously raised some but I didn’t live with her at the time. I have an SLW pullet that I bought “sexed” but I’m starting to think she might be a Roo because her tail feathers are longer than all my other hens. Pics...
My bantam Lemon Splash rooster has successfully produced a fertile egg with my bantam SL Wyandotte. Any ideas what I’ll be looking at, in terms of the chick? Feather footed, but genetically, which coloring might be more dominant? It was so cool to see it moving around when we candled tonight!
SLWyandotte - Izzy. My daughter's 2nd favorite. She can stand her hackles up higher than any other girl I'm familiar with. She has always been the "tomboy" out of this flock. She's 2nd in the pecking order. She has always been an easy bird.
Hey guys, I have two SLW cockerels hatched Sept 6th 2019 who need a home or homes. If you take both you're welcome to have the pullet as well (also SLW). They free range daily, eat high protein food, and are really beautiful birds - we just aren't interested in having roosters since we have a...
Hi everyone, I am located in Victoria, Australia and I am selling 3 cockerels that are about 7 weeks. I have the following:
Silver Laced Wyandotte
Light Sussex (not pure)
Australorp
I have included pictures of them.
My hen was sold to me as a silver laced wyandotte. I have read online that slw are supposed to have yellow legs but mine as gray. She also recently started laying eggs. They are small and a blueish color. I thought silver laced Wyandottes laid larger brown eggs. She also doesn’t look like other...
Hi friends! I'm hoping for some help in sexing my 2 Wyandotte's (SLW). They'll be 5 weeks old tomorrow. One of them was ordered from Cackle Hatchery as a pullet (in a group of 3 - one of 3 different breeds) and one of them was an extra (free) chick included in the order. Just as a side note, in...
I have 15 chicks, all around 10-11 weeks old. I know I have at least 4 SLWs out of 7 that are male, but not sure about 2 of them. I’ll show some pictures. They are from TSC @ .50 a piece, mind you, so their feather quality isn’t consistent. The first pic is of one chick, a feisty small fry...
Hello! I got 4 chicks this year and I believe 3 of them all the SLW are cockerels. They are all 8 weeks old. Our GLW I am pretty sure is a pullet. I have a hard time believing I would be lucky enough to get 3 roos out of 4 chicks I picked up. Would love to hear some thoughts! Thanks!
Two week old supposedly female Wyandotte chick it gives me the stink eye and it barely has wings and tale compared to its sister. It’s also really protective
Hi! I have 2 chicks, about 6wks old now. I would love some input on gender for each if anyone has a moment. Thanks!
Silver laced wyandotte
Speckled Sussex:
So, admittedly I didn't check out the breeder that well as far as breeding lines, etc. but that doesn't matter too much anyway. I wanted decent layers and breeds that are at least usually not aggressive. I *thought* I was getting barred rocks, easter eggers, one buff orp and one SLW.
I know...
