Blue Laced Red Wyandotte

The Blue Laced Red Wyandotte is a breathtaking variety of the classic Wyandotte, admired for its rich red feathers delicately outlined in slate-blue lacing. This eye-catching dual-purpose breed combines dependable production, cold hardiness, and ornamental beauty—making it a standout in any flock.

Blue Laced Red Wyandotte hens typically begin laying around 18–20 weeks of age. While often chosen for their striking appearance, they are also dependable layers of brown eggs and perform well through cooler seasons.

Like other Wyandotte varieties, they feature a rose comb that lies close to the head, helping reduce the risk of frostbite. Their dense feathering and sturdy build make them well-suited for northern climates and year-round production.

Each feather displays a deep mahogany-red center edged in soft blue lacing, creating a dramatic contrast that makes this variety highly sought after. Because the blue lacing gene can produce variations in offspring (including splash and black-laced birds), feather coloring may vary slightly from bird to bird.
