it's not another breed. just another variety.

Love your thinking. Not sure it will work on my BF!

if you put two different varieties in the same pen then you have a project.

I have enough of them already.

I picked up a trio of silver penciled last week at a swap meet.They were someones 4H project last year.What has impressed me is they have been laying.No break due being moved.I guess it is from being very tame and handled a lot.

I am pretty sure I have a partridge that POPPED up from my BLRW... would that help you any? I have one hen that is double laced or penciled sort of and this pullet came from her I am sure. Very pretty, but like you I don't need another variety.

Bantams? or LF? My bantams are ok layers but they lay in cycles. One usually tries to go broody and that stops the rest of them .

I really like mine. Good luck with them!

Are they normally rather "well built" or "thick" chicks compared to others?

They are LF.Seller said they were Urich bloodline.I may have misspelled his name.I got 6 eggs in a week from 2 hens after the move.

New to byc, I have 6 Wyandottes, 4 BLRW, and 2 SLW. Really hoping for a beautiful roo.

This is two of my blue laced reds, the lighter one looks like it's gonna be pretty. Out of the 5 chicks I got, everyone wad a slightly different color. I love the diversity in this breed, even in the same color, you still have diversity. Love it!
