Blue Laced Red Wyandotte THREAD!

I purchased her as a BlueLR Pullet she is around 14-16 weeks old in the picture. After reading up in her I believe her to be splash variety. What do you all think of her quality.
yes, i'd agree she's probably a dark splash. the red is nice and dark. as for type, she'll have to mature some more in order to tell that for sure, right now i'd say it would be poor but that could be her posture and age most likely, more than anything else...

not blrw, but compare the following 2 pics of my dorking 'orangey'... one taken at about the same age as your girl, the other 2 months later.

 
Ill keep an eye in her. She was trying to walk away from me while I was snapping a pic on my phone. Ill have to get some better pics of her. She is a little older now. Thank you.
 
I'm not an expert by any means, but based on the pics I would guess two blue, two black, and two splash. However, I had one once that I could have sworn was black laced, it even feathered in black initially, and then at around 5 or 6 weeks the feathers underneath started coming in blue, and sure enough turned out to be blue. Sometimes you can tell right away, and sometimes you can't...
Maybe I have a chance of ending up with a Blue! I would love the blue version....absolutely a beautiful chicken!

I would try looking on local Craiglist and see what people have now. Ask them if they are hatching in April/May. We are in TN but do ship but our minimum shipment is 10...
 
thanks, I've looked around and can't seem to find anything available, I'll keep you in mind tho, even with the minimum I'm sure I can talk a few friends into getting some:)
