A stunning breed. The silver laced were the first colour in the wyandotte breed. Since then many colours have been intorduced inculding solid whites, blacks, blue and many different forms of pencilling and lacing.
They are a large docile breed weighing between 3-4kg, with superb colouring. Truly something special. They lay a large tinted egg, averaging about 200 a year. They do go brody and make eccelent mothers.
