I did pick them up so that differed some of the cost LOL. It was 2 trips actually ..... might not have saved any on shipping, I did get to pick them out.

Noticed one of my BLRW feathers is black laced .. Lol the rest are blue...interesting... Someone joked that it's a birthmark. Lol she's a pet so I'm not to concerned but is this considered a fault or will it go away when she molts ... Has anyone seen this before ?

And the rest of the flock hatched them all this summer except the buff Orphington.

Blue is a leaky gene so darker feathers are not uncommon.

Today was beautiful and I was excited to be able to spend a bit of time with the birds. I rotate pens for free ranging and my mixed layer flock was out and about today. I have a few BLRW pullets that I'm assessing for breeding in with them temporarily. I hatched the Wyandotte on the left from eggs I bought locally and I hatched the pullet on the right from stock I bought directly from Jerry Foley. I know it's a poor quality pic, but I thought it was a good illustration to show the difference between layer and breeding quality.

I love the antics of dust bathing!

I'm working on getting better pictures to show type. From what I have learned I think this one's tail angle needs to be a little higher, right? She is 5 months old so I know she might still change quite a bit but can anyone tell if she is on the right track? She is rounder than my golden girls who are a month older than her.

Sorry, I'm bad with touch screens. Here are the rest of the picsi meant to attach as well.

I'm very fond of Wyandottes in general, but the Silver and BLR's are my favorites. I have 2 BLRW's and they are beautiful, hearty birds. They tend to stay out of trouble when they free range too!

Is there anyone in the So Cal area that has a silver laced and a gold laced for sale that might be going to the Norco Meet up?
