The Wyandotte Thread

[Banjoplayer]

I ordered them from My Pet Chicken. There are 18 total, but they are not all wyandottes. They hatched yesterday. Their current brooder is a large plastic tub. Bedding is paper towels and hay, when they learn where the food is we will use wood shavings. One of them arrived very weak, but is doing better now. At first, she could not stand up, and looked almost dead, but she has been kept warm and she drank some water. Now she can stand! Is there anything else we can do to help her recover? Sorry about my late reply, we have no Internet, and I have to go into town to use it.

My flock jubilees/red millefleur/redporcelain Wyandotte bantams















































These two are looking for a new home.

Nice looking flock. However, I always wonder if Jubilee and Porcelain are interchangeable? Or if Jubilee reserved for Orpingtons?

I'd offer crumbled up boiled egg yolk it's nutritious & really builds up strength. I always put 1 TBSP per gallon of water of Bragg raw organic unfiltered apple cider vinegar. It's really good for digestion & immune system, plus it is energy boosting. Also, you'll probably want her separate so the stronger ones don't pick on her. As far as tips on raising them there are very good articles in the learning center on this site. I hope she pulls through! My 1st group of 5 chicks are from mypetchicken & they're really healthy friendly wonderful girls.

He is in Europe so his are porcelain. Not sure what they would be called here..... Mille Fluer? they are pretty common in Europe.... they have lots of pretty colors we don't have.

In America they are called spangled.

In America they are called spangled.

I have seen that used for Mottled but not Red based birds. I have seen Jubilee, Mille Fluer, and Speckled but not spangled.

These are some spangled OEGB'S I found on the internet. I believe they basically the same as jubilee and speckled.
