I have had a similar experience with my GLWs!! Our barred rocks, and gold sexlinks are horrible to them. I'll never own sexlinks or barred rocks again.all my S L Wyandotts, are the best ever,e
all such sweet amazing birds not an evil bone in theIr bodies, always sooo sweet , even when all our other chickens barred rocks & new Hampshire reds always go out of their way to go after the wynddotts to beat them up..? for no apparent reason...? just because they can it seems , and I was so glad to see our biggest wynadott stand up for her self against the bullies yesterday :yiipchick .....lol... all our other chickens go out of their way to hunt the wyandotts & to peck at them , and the wyandotts have never acted in that way against any the other chickens , but now the tide has turned.....lol....and I hope the wyandotts will learn how to stand their ground,& to defend them selves, since I have to lock, up 2 barred rocks & one new Hampshire red because they are soooo mean...? until i can be out side to help defend the wyandotts, and it seems to be working as when I see the other chickens start going after the wyandotts to atack them , I yell and show them a stick & tell them you better stop...! & they turn and go away, but if I had known any of this before hand, i would never have any other breed of chicken other then wyandotts, & here is another plus for theSLW , the fancy western hat maker in our town wants to buy the SLW pretty feathers....!so thats a great plus for all our sweet wyandott babies ...!!....lol....
I kinda want a turkey, not exactly sure why cause I don't think I could eat it. Especially after I name it. Maybe after we move and have more land so I don't have to interact with it all the time.
He sounds lovely! I had ordered a GLW one time, she was too weak and didn't make it. She was a lovely chick though. I just seem to have rotten luck with laced birds though. More than half of the ones we have ordered have been sexed wrong.
Great pics! Another case of the laced bird being sexed wrong for us... ours turned out to be male. But I so want another BLRW, they are sooooo pretty! Love the pic of the faverolle. I absolutely adore their cheek feathers. Daisy, our girl, follows me around when I go near the coop. She can't stand it when I clean it out so she stands just outside the door and screams her head off the entire time!Out of 7 girls, one of the 2 blr wyandottes is my friendliest as far as she has to jump on my shoulder every day. But my lowest ranking girl, an EE, follows me everywhere and talks, in a screaming voice, constantly.
The 2 cuckoo Marans are my most standoffish.
