Putting RIR back to BLRW also seems to be the preferred cross to increase the mahogany color in them.

Hi Everyone! My three little BLRW from Paul's are growing up so fast! They've move out of the brooder and into the coop with the big girls. Now if I could just talk them out of roosting in the nest boxes...

Here are some recent pictures:

This is Sam, the biggest so far:

Here's Clover, the one with the best lacing, I think:

And finally Chipmunk (who did NOT want to stand still for the photo op):

Chipmunk was the darkest of the three as a new chick. You all were right, though - all three are feathering out splash!

I'm loving my little Wyandottes, and am learning a lot from this thread!

This is my Silver Laced Wyandotte Rooster/Cockeral Sylvester

He was hatched in late Feb....how long until he starts crowing and um....gettin after the ladies?

figure at least one more month if not 2 before he starts courting, crowing will probably be sooner although my rooster rarely crows except maybe once or twice in the morning while cooped up, once he's out, you don't hear him.
