Golden & Silver Laced Wyandotte's

[Chicken Bff]

I am looking at getting three golden and another three silver laced wyandottes this year and i was wondering about a few things. The first question that i have is are their any differences in the two? If so what one do you recommend. What is the accuracy in the sexing of the two breeds because i know some breeds are harder to sex. Also what are some pros and cons of them? And any other bits of info that you think might be helpful to know. Thank you and have a nice day.

Also would they be in a good climate in north west missiouri?

I have a few Wyandotte's.They are very cold hardy and are beautiful a little noisy but that depends with every chicken.Here are a few threads on auto sexing Wyandotte's.I love mine and i would recommend them to anyone.

I was also curious about how they handle the heat?

Mine did just fine in 100.F last summer.They panted a little.Providing watermelons and putting ice in there water will help too.

Also what would be some of their best and worst traits? And are they easily sexed because I know breeds like silkies are harder to sex so are they like that?

They are pretty easy to sex when old.Traits/Personality will vary with each chicken due to the genetics.
