I have one! She’s beautiful. She is the only standard sized one in my flock. The rest of my hens are dwarf hens.

[@eHowPets]

Thanks for all the great comments, Carol! We love getting them

[@MuhammadTaha333]

how much does it cost?

[@CreekValleyCritters]

Now this is more like it, beautiful, naturally kept, happy chickens........

Silver Laced Wyandottes are wonderful birds and are great pets. Please do not eat them. I had a wyandotte named "Scratcher" and she used to ride around in my truck with me when I would go and do tree work estimates. She had her own milk crate in the passenger seat with a nice towel over it and she would just love to go for a ride. We would go to the farmers market where she would walk right with me and get little freebies from the sellers like bits of lettuce or a couple of strawberries. One day while she was in my yard with another hen named "Redster" which was a rhode island red they were scratching around together and when I went inside just for a minute to make me a sandwich a damn coyote sprang through my yard and grabbed Scratchers as I ran outside and chased it down to the river, it had scratcher by the neck and I could not catch it as it ran through the river and up the bank on the otherside and into the woods. It was simply horrible and I still cry about it to this day. It happened in 2007 the last sunday of the 5th month. R.I.P. Scratcher you were truly a magnificent bird.

[@williammatthews142]

These Wyandottes look so much better than the ones from McMurray and feed stores. Can stock be bought from him? Anyone know?

Marti woodchip it’s ok bud I had my transgender rooster died like a few days ago

[@johnkevin2612]

its your own fault it died you dumbfuck. if you let it be a chicken then maybe it would have survived rather than treating it like a baby human being.

[@rd4469]

@@johnkevin2612 You are ignorant.

[@shelmmii9425]

I totally agree! The more chickens the better!

[@Mongkolfarm]

Beautiful chicken 👍✨❤️😘👌

[@jenniferpierce5251]

Love their coloration.

[@ACEnBEAKY]

I wish Skyrim would take this into account when they make their chickens. In the game, the chickens just look like some off mix breed of buff orphington and rhode Island Red. Thing is, Skyrim is an almost Ice Age Tundra, being like that place from Game of Thrones. Now if Bethesda did it's research and that's the kind of chickens that the Norse and Scandinavian (and Celtic Highlander) peoples the Nords were based on commonly had, more power to them. But to make things more interesting, they should have some of these chicken breeds. Makes sense. This one's for cold weather. Any largely Imperial influenced towns should be stocked with more Foghorn Leghorns, given the history behind them as explained by this gentleman.

[@anonymouspyramids6192]

ACEnBEAKY its sad you took that much thought into something that serves no purpose for the game what so ever. Not a bad idea but who cares?!

[@ACEnBEAKY]

Lennox Jacobson I care. And anyone else who might get a chuckle. That's all that matters.

[@xTinkerBell265x]

Will you do a 'how to' video on adding new chickens to an already established flock? That would be amazing!

[@pseudopetrus]

The Chantecler is also a really cold hardy bird from Canada.

[@vforsejrv7801]

Beautifull birds. The just needs som environment in the run. Thanks

[@williammatthews142]

These are really good looking S L Wyandottes. Wish the popular hatcheries had similar to offer. A guy down the road I jog every day has 3 roosters and 4 hens and they look like terrible scrubs. Where did the owner get this stock? Use to get Silver Pencilled Rocks from McMurray . The hens were really good and rock typey but the roosters were simply awful looking.

[@Abbie.1379]

Anyone else here 8 years later

[@asimkhan-et7xf]

I like you all bird very healthy good job

[@kratos6033]

Man them are some very nice chicken.👍

[@PAllenSmith]

My farm is called Moss Mountain Farm.

[@piosian4914]

Light Brahma can be found in many places in the Philippines. Roosters get to grow 12 pounds, about 2 more pounds than Wyandottes. As a kid back in the Islands, my mother used to tell me she had Light Brahmas in the 30's, the biggest in town.

[@mmerobin]

I have a Silver Laced Wyandotte hen among my flock of 12 layers. I acquired her as an adult, and unfortunately she didn't get much human contact or socialization, so she's rather aloof and stays to the outskirts of the flock. But she's a good, consistent layer and VERY pretty.

[@ammarayyub7789]

Very very beautiful breed 😍

[@javadlaghlimi295]

Nice job, i dont find the eggs of this chickens in morroco

[@lisamartinez6899]

Love these! Where can you purchase these?

[@sammymaravilla7161]

I have them in Texas but chocolate they are very pretty

[@johnliberty3647]

I had Silver laced Wyandottes and they got bullied by the other breeds I had. They were probably the worst layers I had. But they layed enough to be useful and were by far the best looking chicken I have ever seen in person. If you want a good looking bird that isn't hard to find they are perfect. Not exactly something I want in my future flocks though.

[@nicolecamp5963]

I've noticed that they do get bullied and it causes a dramatic egg production difference from when they are separated by breed.

[@marialanderos2495]

I like all the videos you made thanks

[@rocket2811]

How the Silver laced wyandotte Rooster ? I have one growing up ? Is it aggressive!!

[@jackywaldon359]

I really love the Wyandotte chicken breed. Where could I get a start of the Wyandotte bloodline that you have here in this video along with the black australorps that I seen in the background? I don't see this quality of chicken in hatcheries. Your reply would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

[@jessreid23]

I really liked this video. Thanks for sharing. We have a small home flock and we live in New Brunswick canada with harsh winters and extreme cold temperatures. I was wondering how hard it is to get this breed of bird to add to my hobby flock?. I wouldn't mind seeing them pecking around my yard. thanks again for sharing

[@mayhemhavoc1]

Murray McMurray hatchery is a winner.

[@cajunreel1]

We live in south Louisiana with hot temperatures and high humidity in the summer. You said that these are bred for colder weather. Would these be a good idea for our weather and climate?

[@russianbot3411]

nope :)

[@trovoymercer8743]

I live in texas and mine are fine

[@timadams1994]

They are beautiful birds I just got 8 yesterday they are the red an blue they are beautiful to😁

We are uploading a video everyday showing the progression of 6 different breeds of chickens as they mature from chick to hen. Our *Silver-Laced Wyandotte* is one of our favorites! They change so much along the way!! 😊👍

[@flagwaver1969]

Always love those Wyandottes.

[@jacobcooke2434]

I absolutely love these chickens. They are perfect for a dual purpose breed. I am interested in starting my own flock next spring. I was wondering if you could give me some information on where to buy. I have been raising chickens for many years so the experience I have just can not find good breeders and not sure the quality from a hatchery is enough for showing in the future.

Although wyandottes are a very docile bird, I will mention from personal experience that the roosters are not so docile. I have every variety of wyandotte there is, the silver roosters are the worst!

I don't think any animal of that size would be comfortable in 2 square feet. Industrial farming of chickens is sick. On the farm all of our creatures were free to roam.
