Description
The Wyandotte chicken is an American breed of chicken developed in the 1870s. The Blue Laced Red Wyandottes are beautiful chickens that have a blue laced red color pattern which is buff/red in color with a blue that looks just like grey around the edge of every feather. This chicken makes an excellent pet and is good for eggs and/or meat. They will on occasion go broody and they make excellent mothers. They work well in confinement or free range and are a great back yard chicken. Cackle Hatchery® only offers at this time our production type/line not a show type. The Blue Laced Red Wyandotte is not currently recognized by the Standard of Perfection; however, several are working on getting this color recognized.
NOTE: “The blue laced red wyandotte does not breed a true blue color. The blue lacing color will be very light on some, a very good blue lacing on others and some will have a very dark blue/black lacing on others. Just like other blue colored breeds they do not breed true to the same shade of blue. “

I ordered 15 hens in March. All arrived healthy, on time, and have done well in the brooder and now the coop. The breed is as advertised and should be laying any time now. The only down side is that of the 15, I have 12 hens and 3 roosters so that has been disappointing.

These chickens are the most beautiful chickens as well as great light brown speckled egg layers. These chickens are very docile and easily get along with other chickens.

Ordered 3 pullets and got 4 chicks. One turned out to be a rooster, but he is beautiful and well mannered. All are very healthy. Love my Blue Laced Red Wyandottes!!!
