Yeah, I wouldn’t trust anything that came from a hatchery website, especially since it’s so vague.

Could you breed a blue orp to the split? babies?

No need. If you wanted to go that route, you could just use gold laced. It’s not necessary to bring in silver laced unless that’s all you have available.

Splash lacing is not white lacing. Completely different

I said buff laced white not white laced Also their is an actual orpington breed called the buff laced white orpington. Ive been looking for them everwhere.

Taken from the old thread.

Never trust a hatcheries explanation of color genetics.


"from the murray mcmurray site:

This variety of Wyandotte is relatively new and came to the United States from England a short time ago. We were able to get our stock from an outstanding breeder here in the states prior to his "closing the door" on this variety and feel fortunate to perpetuate the Blue Laced Red Wyandotte gene pool. The original development of these came from crossing Silver Laced and Golden Laced varieties of Wyandotte's. After much work the Blue Laced Red was developed from this cross. The blue gene will color the chicks either light blue or dark blue in the lacing (the area around the reddish colored feathers) in both the baby chicks and the mature birds. Therefore you may have birds that vary somewhat in appearance but still display the beautiful colors of this very rare and unusual chick. Mature Blue Laced Red Wyandotte's lay brown eggs and are medium in size with the deep - round -Wyandotte appearance."
