I bought 3 of these blue laced red Wyandotte’s, I’m not exactly sure on age, anywhere from 5 to 10 weeks. I hadn’t questioned their breed at all until I saw someone post about splash laced Wyandotte, which is now making me question... they were bought from a breeder who also hatches eggs from a hatchery. If someone can clarify breed for me and also the genders would be nice to know too.

1st 5th 6th 7th pic is a blue laced red
2nd 3rd 4th splash laced red

They all look like pullets except the one in the first pic might be male.
 
Blue, black and splash can be bred from the same parents, some chicks with have black lacing, some blue and some splash. If they breed for blue laced, there will also be black and splash.
Oh I did it know that. Good to know! I’m new to the breed so when I was picking out these chickies the breeder asked me if I wanted lighter color ones or darker, I didn’t know there was blue and splash, I only wanted blue but they’re cute none the less!
