The Wyandotte Thread

Needing a little advice on who to keep for breeders with these roos.

I have these hens and pullets.

My first SLW's are now about 14 weeks old. I don't know if they are anywhere near standard, but I think they are nice looking. I am particularly fond of my ONE pullet (out of 5 chicks). She has what is probably too much white in her, but I think she is one good looking egg maker. Here are a couple of pics of her and one or two cockerel's in the flock.

My babies just hatched out tonight!

Here are a few pics of some of them. I ended up with 27 of them

I'm happy with that number. Can anyone help me out with colors...what do you see most of? They are BBS

Thank you very much

I think my girls tails are probably good then, they have that nice shape like in the picture, I was just worried that maybe they weren't broad enough.

Although not perfect, the following pictures are of this years birds...so they are still young, but you can get the idea...should look like a Tee-pee from behind.

No, Rocks and many other LF breeds are required to have the yellow leg even in Black or Blue. The yellow leg is difficult in dark colored birds though. In order to maintain the yellow leg you will need to watch both skin color and underdown color. You will fond that the lighter underdown will produce better leg color, just watch that it does not bleed through.

I got some pictures of the girls & Brian today since they've been stuck in their coop getting some medicine.

Brian, I think he was a cull because of his spikey comb & pink legs.. I love him though

Goldie just finished brooding so she's still a little pale.

Sunnie, brooding some mixed eggs i bought locally.

Lacey brooding her eggs & some of her BR 'sisters' eggs.

The new girls. One Black & 2 Blues(1 maybe a splash?)

Here are some pictures of my 3 barred wyandotte bantams. Any opinions on whether I have any hens in this group?
