wyandotte

Hello to everyone who is reading this, I hope you are having a great day! For over a month now I have had a broody hen, a BCM named Copper. She has been really devoted to laying on her eggs, but my hens all fight over one nesting box even though they have 3 identical ones, so she lets them lay...

Hey! So I have 5 week old BLR Wyandottes. I was wondering if one was a rooster. (Picture 1 and 2 looks like the rest if you want to compare) picture 3-5 is the one I think is a cockerel. It has a red/pink comb and shorter wings. Thank you!

I have a 12 week old Lavender Wyandotte -or is she an Orpington? (The feed store sign was inconclusive 😁) Emmilou has the weirdest comb and curly feathers. It could be a rose comb - which all my other Wyandottes seemed to have but it has this wee little nub and is otherwise flat? Is this a...

My Beautiful Golden Wyandotte called Ruby

Hello all! Here is my introduction. (1) Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? I am not new to chickens, but I am still new-ish to ducks. I got my first chickens back in 2014. I started with a pair of Old English Game bantams. I then started showing birds. Once I went to...

Combs not very visible in pictures as they're a rose combed breed so hard to tell & at the moment they all look the same. Believe 3 is a pullet and 1 & 2 are roos, but wanted some input to be sure. Basing mainly off the neck feather shape and the fact that 3 feathered significantly earlier than...

Hey, I just ordered 5 Blue laced Wyandotte hens and 1 Silver laced rooster, does anyone know what the chicks would look like?

Are you new to chickens / when did you first get chickens? I'm new to chickens! I'm currently planning to get 4 chickens in early April. I'm in the process of building a coop+run now. What breeds will I have? Golden Laced Wyandotte - Female × 1 Buff Orpington - Female × 1 French...

I had 1 adult speckled Sussex rooster, 1 adult speckled Sussex hen, 1 adult sapphire gem hen, 1 adult buff orpington, 1 adult sapphire gem / speckled Sussex cross, 1 adult orpington / Sussex cross, and 6 nearly fully grown wyadottes bullets. They free ranged in my yard and get put up at night...

One of my silver laced wyandottes started to molt and then quit midway though. She's often seen on her own so I think she is bullied. I separated her to give her time to grow her feathers in peace, but after a month of isolation she only managed to regrow the ones picked out on her back from...

G'day everyone from (not so) sunny Queensland, Australia. Big thank you for letting me join your online community. My wife and I have a 1 acre block and currently have 3 laying hens (ex-cage Hyline commercial layers) and recently acquired 6 pullets. 2 Welsummer, 2 Polish, Blue laced Barnevelder...

Turkens or Wyandottes???

Hi all, I have seven Blue Laced Wyandottes that were hatched around Easter this year (mid-April). One’s a rooster, so six hens. Most of them are pretty dark, but two of the hens have lighter/almost lavender feathers with red lace. Those two, the lighter ones, started laying about a month ago...

Hi everyone, I hatched out 2 eggs from my own flock (white Brahma) and bought 5 more chicks (“Blue” Laced Wyandottes) from the feed store. None of the birds were sexed. They are 7.5 weeks old today and I’m starting to think I got mainly roosters. 😅 I get very attached (so does my husband) so if...

This blue laced red wyandotte has just started crowing and has tiny spur buds.. approx 16-18 weeks. The two EEs are approx 14 weeks and are bonded, though probably just because they're the youngest in my flock. I wish someone would tell me the EEs were really pullets, but I am somewhat...

Are you buying / hatching chicks next year ( 2024 )? I’m getting salmon favorelles, Cochin, Orpingtons, and blue red laced wyandotte. What are you getting?

We got baby chicks over the summer and this was one we got from the tub labeled Blue tint Wyandotte but the head feathers make me wonder if it’s a polish or polish mix? I’m still new to chickens so don’t have a good handle on all the breed characteristics yet! Thanks!

these are now 9,5 weeks. Any additional help on gender of these would be appreciated!
