Shawn and I will have the following breeding this year. Hope to expand next year (2014) two two quads of each type. One quad at my place, one at his. That way we won't have to keep as many roos. If we lose a roo the person will just send all the hens to the other place.

Buff Wyandottes - Two 2012 roos (Ideal). 3 hens from Meyers 2011 -Roos are very large and nice - already have 10 chicks.

Blue/Black Wyandottes - Two Black roos - Using one from US right now with 3 Blue hens and 1 Black hen. Eggs are starting to be fertile.

White Wyandotte - Really good show quality White Roo (very large) and a pullet. Pullet is too young right now. Using the White roo with my one Columbian hen and my one buff Columbian hen to help increase the size in both lines. Columbian roo is in roo pen for now. Will put the White roo with White pullet later this spring when she is old enough.

Partridge Wyandotte - One roo (from Duane) and 6 pullets. 3 pullets from him and 3 from mine. + i old hen. Haven't started laying yet.

Golden Laced Wyandottes. 6 pullets and 4 roos. Two lines. Pullets are ready to lay but roos are only 3-4 months old.

Silver Pencilled Wyandottes - Hugh birds. One pen with a trio, one pen with a quad. Just starting to lay. 3 eggs a day from 5 pullets. . No fertility so far but hoping for some soon.

Silver Laced Wyandottes - Young roo from BC out of Guardhouse line. Young pullet got out of cage when I was feeding and dog grab her and she died. Looking for a good quality pullet or two right now.

Making Barred Wyandottes. Found information on line from UK. Write me if you want site address. Shows how to make several colours. I have a nicely Barred Rock roo from Felix (great barring but so/so tail) with my largest and best Black Wyandotte hen. Will have some for sale this year. I will keep the Best roos to breed back to Black hens for next spring (2014) to have Barred to sell. That should fix the Barred colour and Wyandotte comb to be 100%.

I posted some pictures of my Wyandottes on this site recently. You can see them at

What do you charge per dozen eggs? I'm interested in the gold laced for a March 10 set date if your roos are up to the task. Would also love to have some blue laced if you have plans to breed some of those.

Hi E

Eggs are $25 a dozen. The shipping foam and box from the US is $10 (cost me $9.45 by the time I get them here with shipping exc). It is the same cost if you buy 1 or 2 dozen.

So $35 incl. shipping for a dozen. What does a partridge Wyandotte look like?

Hi

Looks very much like a partridge Rock but has the Wyandotte comb and style. Just picked my flock up this year and these will be the first I hatch and eggs I sell. Have 5 pullets, 3 have started laying. First test bunch 7/8 were fertile. Best of any of my pens so far this spring.
