Where are the SLW's ?

[Mrs. Turbo]

We love Silver Laced Wyandottes!!!!

I have a couple of the SLW chicks in the hatcher now...the first ones for 2010. Here are few pictures of the birds we have raised.....

These are some of our 2009 hatch birds so they still have some growing to do....they take 18 months to fully mature.

This is a 2008 hatch rooster

You know how I feel about your SLWs!

Wow! some more beautiful birds! Are they hard to sex visually when they hatch? I am supposed to be getting five sometime feb or march...

 

[Mrs. Turbo]

It is cold outside and we are waiting for 5-8 inches of snow to drop anytime so why not jump on BYC and post some pictures....LOL i need to find some pretty spring pictures with lots of green grass....come on SPRING!

 

[Mrs. Turbo]

I don't know of anyway to sex them when they hatch other than vent sexing.

 

[MissAnnieFrannie]

hmmm i had heard something about feather sexing wyandottes, but i didnt know if it still applies to silver laced?

And i know how ya feel about dreading the snow! I am in TN and we are also supposed to get 6-12 inches. and I was hoping to build the coop this weekend

I think you are getting the same snow storm as us....the numbers get higher the farther south you go. I will take this over the ice storm we had last year.

 

[MissAnnieFrannie]

lol, the news says it gets worse the more south in tn you go.

 

[Mrs. Turbo]
