Wanting BLR Wyandottes in Ga.

[RAREROO]

I am wanting some reasonably priced dayold BLR wyandotte chicks that can be shipped, preferably from a NPIP certified breeder in the US. I want mostly the splash variety with a few blues, but no blacks.

Please PM me if you can help. Pics of your BLRs would also be great.

I am very new to this breed, so I am not certain of this...but, I don't think you can tell at day-old if the chicks are splash or blue. Can you? Any breeders out there? I just hatched out my first two chicks and they are both alike and dark brown chipmunk marked.

Just curious, what would you consider "reasonably priced?"

I have been told that it is a little difficult the differentiate between the blues and the blacks, but easy to tell the splash.

For this particular breed, I consider $3 - $5 a reasonable price.

Ummm, I'm just curious. Doesn't BLR mean blue laced red? Can you have a splash, black or blue, blue laced red?

Check with bishopschickens
because I got some BLRW chicks from them and they were very good priced. Shipping was good as well. Here is the difference from splash and blr chicks...you can tell the difference some times.

A reg blr

Yes, it means Blue Laced Red but there is a splash the lightest coloring then the blue and then the black. I have the splash and the black very nice contrast in the feathers..

I have BLRW. I'm in GA. I sell day old for $5 a piece. My next batch are in the hatcher now. I hatch mostly dark blues but I have about 30% splash (most of my splash are actually a light blue not a white). Depending on how many you want I can pick through and get you mostly splashes. If you do a search of my name you can see my stock. I have birds from Sterling Center farms and Jerry Folley. I have never shipped chicks. But if you are interested in meeting, I will be going to Lagrange sometime soon. So that would be a shorter drive for you.

Let me know if you are interested. I can get you some chick pics if you would like.
