I’d love to hear anyone’s experiences with good quality(not hatchery) Wyandottes- and hybrids as well! Photos, growth rates, average finishing age & weights, are all greatly appreciated as well.
I live in a neighborhood and have gotten along well with my sweet Delaware rooster who only ever...
Hi long time since I posted! But I have a question and I keep getting mixed answers.
Long story. But feel like you need the whole picture. I have a broody hen (Ethel) who is a blue laced Wyandotte. She was broody probably two months ago, I bought fertile eggs and put under her. I made the...
Located in Bozeman, Montana. We will deliver them to you or meet you in town.
I have 4-5 year old chickens and ducks in need of homes. Unfortunately I'm not sure who is still laying, but some of the hens are still laying some eggs. Any of them anyone is willing to take in would be a blessing...
So one of my SLRW feathers are coming in a bit different than my other 2. I have no experience with frizzles but could this be what it is? Or just wonky baby feathers coming in? She is a sexed pullet from Cackle hatchery. Hatched on 6/1/2021
Today I was contacted by a local breeder.
She was retiring her Blue Laced Red Wyandottes and wanted a no-kill home for them.
A thirty-minute drive and 80$ later I finally have hands on some of my ultimate dream chickens.
I have always wanted BLRW, but I had this weird curse where something...
I have a Wyandotte mama who’s sitting on a clutch of 6 eggs. She’s been great so far. I’ve noticed though that she keeps leaving an egg (or a couple) out from underneath her. So far I’ve just been scooting them back underneath her but tonight when I found one I decided to candle it and see if...
This is what I ordered:
1 Barred Rock
6 Rhode Island Red
3 Speckled Sussex
3 Blue Laced Red Wyandotte
3 Blue Laced Gold Wyandotte
3 Gold Laced Wyandotte
2 Lavender Orpington
One of our dogs snuck into the chick room and now two are missing. We are trying to figure out which ones. Any help is...
Got her as a chick sold as a golden laced Wyandotte pullet from a local and pop feed store. She’s about 9 weeks old now and I’m feeling uncertain. Her/his cone doesn’t look quite like a Wyandotte and she has white marks on her chest feathers.
Does anyone know if maybe she is mixed with something...
I am starting to think all the chicks I bought this year are male. Three are polish. One is a light Brahma and the other is a gold laced Wyandotte. Is there any hope that I have a hen?
I only have this one photo of the chicks since they are so fast it’s hard to get one to take better photos and it’s been raining so getting them out of the brooder to take photos has been even more difficult. I can post more photos at a later date but wondering if anyone can tell from chick...
After bringing my chicks in from the garage to keep warm during a power outage I noticed that one of my wyandottes is breathing through her mouth and making a crackling noise.
I haven't noticed any diarrhea or any other symptoms
Any idea what it could be or at least a general treatment? They...
I've heard people talk about them as something that exists, but when I google pictures most of what I get is gold laced and blue laced red Wyandottes. So is this a real color? If so, I would love to see actual pics! Thanks!
This little chickie seems more bold than the rest. Jumps at me and pecks at me and chest bumps the other chicks. Won't run away when I reach for him/her (which is nice because my kids & I like to hold them). Is it too early to tell if a roo? It is one of 12 chicks of various breeds including 4...
Hi! New chicken owners here. We just got these three lovely chickens sold as 16 weeks / 4 month old pullets, two wyandottes and one sussex.
I am worried the black one might be a rooster. She is very brave and curious, food motivated and top of the pecking order.
Her tail seems longer than...
Looking for BCM, Polish, Cochin, Wyandotte, Silkie, frizzle, and some standard egg layers like RIR.
Wanting pullets. I live in the Okanagan. Willing to drive, or possibly pay shipping.
It's my first time getting Wyandotte's so I have no idea how to sex them. We got this one at a place that didnt take the best care of them, they said it was 90% pullets but I'm not sure how accurate that was.
I got 4 chicks from the agway on Saturday, they arrived there Thursday, so I'm guessing they are about a week old. I forgot to ask about age and forgot to watch them put the chicks in the box so I'm not sure who is what breed. Rookie mistake! They are supposed to be barnevelder, golden laced...
Got two Wyandotte’s at a local store and they were supposed to be blue laced red’s. Now I know about BBS and how blue never breeds true, they could both have the black gene instead of blue but now I’m wondering if they may be gold laced.
I’ll add photos below :
thanks!
