blue laced red wyandotte

[Clems Girls]

hi, looking into maybe getting two blue laced red wyandottes and just wanted to know a bit about them.

does anyone have any experience with them?
size of eggs?
how often do they lay?
how hard would it be to introduce them to my flock? (my light sussex hens can be bullies)
where would they be on the pecking order?

any feedback would be greatly appreciated.

Well, first thing you should know is blue does not breed true. If you are getting older birds then you will know which color you are getting in advance. If you are ordering chicks you could possibly get any combination of blue laced red, black laced red or splash laced red.

I have had Wyandottes in the past and they were certainly able to hold their own in a flock. Egg size was large medium to large.
