All,
I have 2 silver laced Wyandottes. They are 4 wks old. One of them is much darker than the other. The lighter one has a lot more silver coloration across the upperback/shouder and lower neck area, whearas the other has dark feathers in this area and not as bright sliver lacing elsewhere.
One of them is the 'spare' thrown in and I'm beginning to suspect she may be a 'he'.
Anyone have experience with this breed and how early you can tell, or if the feather color makes a difference this early? I'll try to post pics tomorrow, which I know would help a lot!
