Blue Laced Red Wyandotte THREAD!

[Fancychooklady]

My first hatch of BLRW! Please comment if you can guess how dark they may be. #5 & 7 are the darkest, #6 the lightest. Thank you! [SIZE=11.8181819915771px][COLOR=B42000] [/COLOR][/SIZE]

I would say that #6 is your splash. 5&7 look like blacks to me.

1,2,3,4,& 8 are going to look awesome!
Agree on 5&7

Cockerel


Came home Sunday evening to my sons d'uccle hen killing some of my chicks. She got my last 2 pure Foley chicks I had left before pred had killed my cockerel and nearly killed another blue and 4 CCL and Rhodebars. She ate off the tale of the black one and attempted the same with the others. I was going to cull her but son talked me into sending her to the farm to live with Kathy(His bosses mother) so I let him. At least I have 2 blue chicks to grow out yet and they are just starting to get in their dark color and will have a nice blue contrast it's looking like.

Photo is not the best but you can see the dark red coming in. I have faith in these last 2 chicks as they are all I have left. I do have 2 cockerels I bought back that I hatched out last year from previous birds but have brass. One of which has really nice dotte type so I'm going to breed them in hopes for a few nice chicks.crossing fingers.

I'm sorry about the loss of your chicks! I have never had an older bird kill any of my chicks.

How old are the chicks you have left?
