Is she black-laced?

No...I think she has a single comb though.

 

[TheOddOneOut]

Because she doesn't have as much golden as my other ones do. She also does not have a rose comb, and that's what wyandotte's are supposed to have.

She's "hatchery quality".


No.. Read the above post ^

Cool! Wyandottes are so beautiful...I've always wanted one, but have heard stories of them becoming bullies toward flock members, pecking order aside, and also becoming aggressive towards people. But I know some are perfectly nice, so...maybe I'll get one in the future!

I got 2 Columbian Wyandotte chicks last June along with 6 other girls. They aren't bullies at all and are laying well though they struggle to make USDA Medium.

I have heard the same stories. I think it is important to remember that every chicken is an individual. Just like every human is. They each have their own personalities. I had heard the same thing about Wyandottes but i ddi not let it stop me from getting one. You can see here how that has turned out.

No, no, wyandotte's aren't alway like that! Mine are very sweet, just a little shy though. So far mine haven't bullied, just did what every chicken does to keep her place in the pecking order.

And yes, she has a single comb. Here's another picture:
