Wyandotte Chickens Are They Right For Your Flock

[@dmarlan]

One of my favorite flocks I ever had was I ordered a straight run of 50 Silver Laced Wyandottes. No Kidding I had people stop, pull in to admire the birds. A group of these are hard to beat as lawn ornaments. Good Layers, hardy dual purpose birds.

[@jesyjones5078]

I think Wyandottes are one of my favorite chicken breeds. They're friendly but not "all over you" friendly, very levelheaded and well behaved. Easy to manage.

[@kclav4666]

My first Wyandot was a silver laced . Loretta she was so regal and beautiful . We lost her last year when the temperature got 110 degrees. We did everything we’d read or heard about to keep our little flock alive . From changing water several times a day - with ice . Iced boxes so they good get cooler , fan - we’d cool them down by putting their feet in our bird bath full of cool water . Loretta didn’t make it . Anyway, this year we got several more chickens but only one blue- laced Wyandotte . She’s a preteen and named Queen Latifia - Queeny for short . She’ll definitely be our beauty queen. I was a little worried because I have only one . I usually buy 2 of each kind - but I was at my max . So far so good . She seems to hang out with my Lavender opingtons. Thanks for the information

An absolutely gorgeous bird! I don't know how I overlooked them!

[@caperica]

I love my Wyandottes. They are my very favorites. I just ordered 3 more. Friendly and sweet. Great layers into the winter.

[@akib2542]

I had 3 wyandotte bantams.. Sadly the blue laced passed away after an undiagnosed illness.. Still have the brown laced and silver laced.. They look gorgeous rummaging around the garden..

[@destinyschild8515]

My silver laced Wyandotte, Winnie, is beautiful but oblivious. As my girls free range she wanders 30 minutes alone then looks around like 'hey where is everyone?' She is a straggler I have to keep my eye on.

[@rachel5736]

I have the Blue Laced red Wyandotte’s and we love them❤

[@randitommeraasen9272]

I’ve seen these and I want some!! I have a gold laced and A silver laced. Gorgeous birds. My silver is usually hanging out by herself wander around doing her chicken thing! She is so laid back. Doesn’t seek attention though.

[@Greenkitten45]

I mostly know this breed name because when I was younger I pronounced it "Why-NAY-dot," and people would usually chuckle or groan. It took me forever to get the name right. That and I've always liked the spotted/speckled varieties. 🐔 ❤

[@allensherrill850]

I finally got a Wyandotte. She’s a very non lap chicken. But she is gorgeous and very friendly. She’s loud but only when I’m messing up, doing the wrong things.

[@douglasphillips24]

Ordered 5 Silver laced wyandotte hens and 5 Golden laced wyandotte hen chicks but once 6 weeks old I saw I had a silver laced wyandotte Rooster but kinda glad now at 3.5 months old cause he's a huge beautiful bird that guards the hens very well.

[@desmondoke9871]

This is one of the most beautiful chicken with the colours

[@SandyJBerry]

I have two silver laced wyandottes.... would love to find two golden laced wyandottes in my area. They are just stunning!!

[@chickinnfarmer]

I love my 2 wyandottes they are very friendly

[@debn7206]

Very interesting video! I have some silver lace, gold lace, and splash lace....very pretty and good natured birds Good sized but not as large as my Bielefelders

[@A-Dub68]

One of my favorite hens that I ever had was a Gold laced and, not true to their nature, became the dominant hen of my flock at the time. She actually "crowed" (not audibly) and grew 1.5" leg spurs like a rooster! A local breeder said she had never seen that in a Gold laced or any Wyandotte in the 20 years she had been breeding. Sadly, Buttercup was taken out by a neighbor's dog while free ranging.

[@keyboardoracle1044]

Don’t have any yet but will get some eggs for hatching in spring. One of my first choices for my flock. Vorwerks were first choice and I wanted some coloured egg layers before I got my Wyandotte’s. I’ll have a silver and gold and sell the excess.

[@kclav4666]

A wealth of information!! Thank you

[@sheilal3172]

I have Black-laced Silver Wyandottes and Columbians in S.W. Missouri. They are so quiet that my neighbor complained she wasn't hearing chicken noises. The do get hot in the summer, and I must keep a wading pool and cool water for them. Super hardy in the winter.

[@felishiadarling]

I have two COLUMBIAN who went broody on me right away. They were sent to me mid Oct-winter raised in my house. In February I put them out and within two weeks of laying they both hatched one egg each. Then one hatched four more. The four are almost four weeks old. I also have a silver laced. I bought two but one didn’t recover from the shipping experience.

[@matthewjackson6489]

I hear “not exactly lap chickens” but my splash laced reds got me addicted to chickens. They don’t stop jumping on me and talking sweet.

[@caperica]

Mine are like that. The run to come jump on my lap.

[@markwhite270]

We have Golds but they are only 14 weeks old, so far so good.

[@rockynorthen3888]

[@florianmathaess1803]

But my absolute favorite chicken's are the Wyandottes as well. Some time I will get my two or three but then the silver laced one's they are my absolute favorite Wyandottes in terms of color.............................

[@dgeorge]

Two red laced Wyandottes Hennessy and Henrietta very smart the have already learned how to communicate with me believe it or not

[@florianmathaess1803]

Great video. I have chickens as well since nearly one and a half years. It was my childhood dream. Now I am 23 and it finally worked. 😍😍🐔🐔🐔🐓 I have Silkies, 2 Orpingtons 1 Amrock and 4 Sundheimer's, a german breed, one "normal one" and three midget Sundheimer's. And a midget Silky rooster. But he is a mixture because he doesn't have a wall nut comb only a standard one. I am actually not sure what other breed is sticking in him because of the standard comb. But he is really friendly. His name is Tristan. And currently I have 6 young one's with them, that hatched this year in May. And I am lucky: three roosters and 3 chickens. That's very rare you know. But now the roosters are starting to mate with the chickens and its getting a little bit more "crazy" now ya know. But they are not crowing yet but I think it won't be long........... One of them I want to keep. Because Tristan my silky mix is used to more roosters from the previous owner, where I got him. So that's absolutely no problem. This works perfectly. But one young rooster starts to get aggressive now as well. But the other two are calm and also very friendly. I think this might work. I only have to make a decision, which one will stay with my flock. But I have to favorites. The third one is no use because he's very dominant already and starts to be aggressive. But I will see, one will be the follower of Tristan. Because Tristan is two years old almost............. But I keep him, this he will die naturally, ya know? We will se who will be the follower of him and how it goes.................... CHICKENS FOR EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Many greetings from Germany, Florian

[@tawnikitari]

I finally got a coop today. I owned chickens when I was a kid, but my parents took care of them. So I am basically starting from scratch. I always wanted silkies! Or at least ONE. They're my favorite chickens. But I have heard they're mainly for pets and not for eggs. And I heard they're mite prone :/ how do you personally feel and what advice would you give to someone like me (beginner)? 😊 And what are some pros and cons about them? If you don't mind me asking 😁

[@florianmathaess1803]

@@tawnikitari hello. No problem. The Silkies are often kept as a pet. I have a few silkies just because of their character, they are really calm and get tame really quickly. They are not great egg layers, only 80 to 100 eggs a year but when they are broody, they are very good mothers. I currently have a young silkie chicken, it's 9 months old and one month ago it started laying. And since two days it's broody already. Now it's sitting on 5 eggs. 😀😂😂🐔🐣🐣 I was a little confused, because it's still a little cold in my area, where I live, so I didn't now, if it will work but I think it will. And I assume in three weeks it will be warmer so with the small chicks it will be no problem we'll see...... I hope that I don't have as much roosters as the last time (4 roosters and one chicken 🙄😂😂😂) but we'll see what comes out.......

[@florianmathaess1803]

And I have 2 roosters at the moment, my silke mix rooster Tristan abd one of the young ones from last year, a midget as well I called him Louie. And it works perfect with both roosters 😀🐓🐓🐔🐔🐔🐔👍👍👍👍

[@florianmathaess1803]

@@tawnikitari And I only let one chicken breed eggs out this year not two again like last year. This way, I hope I am more lucky with the roosters........

[@florianmathaess1803]

@@tawnikitari A friend of mine he has chickens as well since 3 years approximately 30 or 35 or something and last year he had two broody hens and now he has 4 chickens and 7 roosters running around at his chickens, so it can be very annoying, you now. And they all started to crow now and now he has 7 roosters crowing around all over the place. 😂😂😂😂😂 So he definitely has to do something now sooner or later............. Jesus Christ 😂😂😂😂😂😂

[@shanpatrickbaker988]

I know of no one who is unhappy with their Wyandottes. I have gold-laced hens that are basically dogs and they cannot get enough human interaction.

[@blkmjcwmn61]

I love my gold laced wyandotte hens too. They are really great girls.

[@wandawilliams2397]

I have 2 gold laced wyandottes. They are quickly rising in the pecking order of a well mixed flock. Even climbing the ranks in my original FLOCK OF Rhode Island Reds. My girls can be bully’s but the wyandottes don’t even care

[@prdeereman]

How long does it take to breed blue laced chicks from silver laced hens and blue laced rooster ? Any info would be great thanks in advance

[@doreennapoli8953]

Ya I have Wyandotte, and they are the worst chickens I've ever had , the roosters are as mean as they can be they attack even through closed doors, the hens refuses to sit on eggs, it doesn't matter what we do, they refuse to nest they just lay eggs anywhere, but not in there nest, so have you any advice as to how to solve my problems, thanks

The only bad thing about wyandottes is that you need to get several in order to appreciate the variety of colors.

So why isn’t that “purebred” chickens don’t come with pedigrees to prove they’re purebred when it comes to showing? Like cats or dog? Sometimes scammers be selling cross breeds that look pure😂 just a thought
