Blue Laced Red Wyandotte

Wyandottes are said to be of good temperament, although some can have strong personalities making them seem aloof. They are a friendly bird but not ‘cuddly’ and can be quite talkative, although this can vary greatly from bird to bird. They are usually fairly dominant with other birds so are often near or at the top of the pecking order. They don’t appear to bully other birds but are assertive and are seldom bullied. As for egg laying, they are reasonable layers averaging around 200 light to dark brown eggs each year. They are prone to be at the top of the pecking order in a flock. The bird is known as a rose-combed bird, which is ideal for colder climates as they will not easily get frost-bitten as the comb sits much closer to the skull.
