Looks like it's in the works for me too get some white Wyandotte bantams from Daniel Jeremone. Nothing confirmed yet, but we are working something out! Looking forward to getting some good quality birds.

Does anyone have pics they can post of blue wyandottes that show the blue/black/splash contrast? I have some blues and they all look the same, especially the roos. There's no obvious difference in their color. I also have BLRWs and can easily identify b/b/s. These blues are tricky...for me anyway.

Thought I would share this picture I set up for my Page. The bird on the left is, obliviously, a hatchery bird I used to own and the boy on the right is a boy I bred and hatched from my quality stock. Goes to show breeder is the way to go!

Blacks with a light blue in the front.

Extreme light blue on far left, blue in center and blacks to the right.

We cull our splash-which looked white when they are grown up-so I don't have any pictures of them.

Thank you! I couldn't believe that I ended up with no splash. They are hatchery stock and I expected mostly splash. Isn't that how it usually goes? Unfortunately, I discovered two of my roos to be missing this afternoon. Somehow the coop door was open and two were missing. I nearly cried. I hope they show up, but I found a suspicious pile of feathers. Here's a pic of mine. They aren't a year old yet.

Thanks! We're working to get them a little bigger and have better shape. His son is much bigger too. Can't wait to see this years peeps from them.

He is stunning.
