The Wyandotte Thread

Would that be bantams laying at 5 months? My LF Cochin didn't start laying until 8 months. The Wyandottes started laying at 8 months also.

I have about 70 Cochin bantams in 7 varieties and show 5 of those varieties. I decided I would not get another variety or breed that would show in the same class. After looking at the Ohio Nationals and seeing NO Gold Laced Bantams I decided to try to find some decent GLW bantams. This is what I found.

Good for you! Looks like you were successful in finding some nice ones.

I would say it is awesome! That is a quality that should be bred for imo. If I had a group laying at that age I would use them for breeding.

I set 20 eggs in the incubator this morning! 14 are test eggs and 6 are shipped BLRW.
