Description
The Wyandotte chicken is an American breed of chicken developed in the 1870s. The Blue Laced Red Wyandottes are beautiful chickens that have a blue laced red color pattern which is buff/red in color with a blue that looks just like grey around the edge of every feather. This chicken makes an excellent pet and is good for eggs and/or meat. They will on occasion go broody and they make excellent mothers. They work well in confinement or free range and are a great back yard chicken. Cackle Hatchery® only offers at this time our production type/line not a show type. The Blue Laced Red Wyandotte is not currently recognized by the Standard of Perfection; however, several are working on getting this color recognized.
NOTE: “The blue laced red wyandotte does not breed a true blue color. The blue lacing color will be very light on some, a very good blue lacing on others and some will have a very dark blue/black lacing on others. Just like other blue colored breeds they do not breed true to the same shade of blue. “

I ordered 1 Roo and 7 hens and they are all Beautiful and friendly.
I also got two extra Roo’s that I’ve grown attached to
Michael Leidner –
Ordered a few of many varieties. Ordered 3 BLRW pullets. Got two cockerels and a black laced red pullet. Sexing is not the best with this breed, order straight run and you won’t get disappointed. Overall, I came out ahead on sexing with the straight run birds I ordered, so overall I am pleased with the order. Just would not have ordered sexted pullets of this breed.
agwillcutt15 –
Fat, loud, weird. But she is a beautiful and kind hen.
Josh Hall –
I ordered 15 hens in March. All arrived healthy, on time, and have done well in the brooder and now the coop. The breed is as advertised and should be laying any time now. The only down side is that of the 15, I have 12 hens and 3 roosters so that has been disappointing.
jenniferbowmanhatesgoogle –
My chicks came in April it is now February of the next year and I can say I am very pleased with my chickens. All arrived healthy and we didn’t lose a single chick. These are such beautiful calm birds, they are so very well worth trying. The hens are laying almost everyday through winter and only stopped during a very low temperature spell. I did as many do and got a surprise rooster however I have decided to keep him rather than stick him in our freezer. The rooster is very calm compared to some of the other types which I have and those ladies deserve their own man.
Carly Kubinski –
I ordered sexed pullets and ended up with half of them being roosters. As far as blue lacing goes, only 1 has the blue. She luckily is a pullet. I understand the blue genetics don’t breed true but still a little disappointing. Over all I am happy with the demeanor of these chickens. They are inquisitive and very gentle with my family. Because I paid for pullets and got half roosters- I probably won’t order again.
palesanom –
Gorgeous hens! I’m very impressed with the quality of lacing on the birds now that they are full grown. They are heavy birds and they lay an egg nearly everyday. The eggs are always speckled and have heavy blooms. Very happy!
Rachel Edwards –
I received one blue laced red wyandotte and she’s the sweetest of the 4 chicks I received. Unfortunately she is blind and is kind of runty, but I’ve been giving her extra care and she’s catching up with the others. I’m not taking off stars because i don’t think it’s the hatchery’s fault, it would be hard to tell whether a chick you’re about to ship out is blind or not since in that setting you can’t focus on individuals. I’m glad I recieved her and I love her very much.
alexgarrison44 –
I was very please! I ordered 15 and received 17. On top of this it arrived a day early and they were all so very happy and healthy!!

Full of Personality
We ordered three BLR Wyandottes, three Barnevelders, and a male dark Brahma. Unfortunately, the Barnevelders didn’t hatch out as well as expected, so we received the Brahma and five Wyandottes, as well as a refund for the Barnevelders! The little ladies (and gent) are nine days old at the time of writing, and they’re all thriving. One of them is already testing out her wings and managed to fly up to the edge of the brooder and perch there twice this afternoon.
This is my first time ordering from Cackle, and I’ve been very impressed at every step. I plan to order again next year when we scale up!
CindyfromPa –
Wonderful!
These birds were healthy and cute while babies and turned into beautiful huge birds when grown! Very happy with my purchase!

NOT HAPPY WITH THEIR CUSTOMER SERVCE
I ORDERED 6 CHICKS. THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL BUT 2 OF THEM TURNED OUT TO BE ROOSTERS.I PAID 7.20 EACH FOR FEMALES ONLY PLUS ALL THE ADDED FEES CAME TO $84.82 I CONTACTED THEM IN SEPTEMBER AND SENT PICTURES OF THE 2 ROOSTERS. AFTER MANY PHONE CALLS I WAS TOLD THE REFUND IS UP TO THE OWNERS THE SMITH FAMILY. I JUST GOT A REFUND FOR ONE (1) ROOSTER ( $7.20 ) IT IS NOW DECEMBER.. CONTACTED THEM AGAIN AND TOLD THEM IT WAS TWO (2) ROOSTERS AND RE SENT THE PICTURE.
THEIR REPLY WAS THE SEXING OF THE CHICKS IS NOT A GUARANTEE. COME ON YOU HAVE BEEN IN BUSINESS SINCE 1936. SO END OF THE STORY. IT IS NOT THE $7.20 THAT I FEEL I AM OWED BUT THE PRINCIPAL OF IT. STICK WITH YOUR LOCAL FEED STORES. THEY ARE NEVER WRONG ABOUT THE SEXING THEIR CHICKS. SORRY BUT YOU HAVE LOST MY BUSINESS.

Blue Laced Wyandottes
I ordered three pullets…ended up with two striking gals and one very handsome and mild roo. I’ve found all three to be gentle, inquisitive, and a quiet edition to the flock.
Beautiful and friendly –
My favorite
So sweet these birds are. They have quickly became one of my favorite. Very docile !!

Best Looking Birds We’ve Ever Had
These guys are the biggest, prettiest, classiest birds we’ve had. They’re quiet, happy, a little picky on what they eat, and by far have the best health. We purchased in early April and these guys have been spectacular egg layers. They’re big, gentle ladies (plus one gentleman). The rooster is gorgeous and happy and healthy. We couldn’t ask for more from Cackle Hatchery.
Matt –
Mostly black
Ordered 10, got 6 black, 4 blue, 0 splash. Yes, I understand how blue breeds. Of those 10, 2 were roos. So, I got 3 blue laced for the price of 10. Won’t be ordering these again. Reported it to Cackle twice, was ignored both times and questioned to my knowledge of chicken color genetics. But hey, the 3 newborn chicks I paid $72 for are nice…

Blue Laced Red Wyandotte
These chickens are the most beautiful chickens as well as great light brown speckled egg layers. These chickens are very docile and easily get along with other chickens.
Jill H –
Beautiful birds, great layers
We have 3 blue laced red Wyandottes. They are all gorgeous birds and lay large eggs almost every day. They have an independent nature and don’t squabble with the other chickens. Love them!
Tree –
Beautiful breed
I ordered three pullets this past spring and received two pullets and a rooster. They are all beautiful and so mild mannered. Even the rooster! He gets along great with my other roo so he is welcome in our flock.
Shar –
Beautiful birds
These guys are 15 weeks now and absolutely gorgeous and healthy birds.! I could not be happier. Thank you cackle Hatchery.
Janice –
Excellent bird
Ordered 3 hens, received an extra golden lace. I love the look of these birds with their gray and red feathers. The are very mild mannered. One actually loves to swing on a swing I placed in the coop. People get a kick out of it. 1 of the 4 starting laying at 16 weeks. Still waiting on the others.
JFran –
Very Hardy beautiful birds
I ordered a few hens in June and they are very healthy and are everybody’s favorite bird to see in the yard. Definitely ordering more in the spring.

Blue laced red wyndottes
I purchased 12 chicks. 2 were roosters and 10 hens. 5 died over the first two weeks. The other 7 are beautiful. I have 1 rooster and 6 hens. If I could post a picture of them I would. I will definitely order for cackle again. I purchased 10 silver laced wyndottes and my dogs killed every one of them while I was gone. But had no issues with them they were growing beautifully
Cackle Hatchery Team –
To Al who was sent the wrong color wyandotte
Please contact us and send us pictures. I am not sure if you purchased not sexed or sexed birds but we should have definitely sent you the correct color bird.
Katie –
Beautiful!
I bought 3 pullets and they’ve turned into beautiful gentle hens! They were hardy chicks. I got them first of March and they began laying end of July-early August.

Beautiful-Hearty Bird
One of the most beautiful birds in our flock—it’s one of the ones that people always point out and ask what it is. Seems very hearty and they’ve been doing well.
Dodge Dart –
Beautiful Hens and Roosters
They’re as beautiful as the pictures show. One of our hens made friends with one of our ponies. Very nice chickens.
Linda –
Nice
Ordered 3 pullets and got 4 chicks. One turned out to be a rooster, but he is beautiful and well mannered. All are very healthy. Love my Blue Laced Red Wyandottes!!!
IzzyD –
Great birds, very healthy
Very healthy birds bought to hopefully show in 4-h. Won a blue ribbon with many comments saying gorgeous coloring. Very distinct coloring. We accidentally got a black one but we are glad we did because that one is also very gorgeous. Overall great birds and easy to keep.
Amy –
Beautiful
I bought 3 blue laced red wyandottes in February. They were my daughters choice for 4H showing. We narrowed it down to one very friendly hen, she won 3 poultry shows, including the state fair, she was also grand Champion breed standard for our county.
Jen –
I ❤ My Blue Laced Red Wyandottes!
I have been waiting and waiting for Blue Laced Red Wyandottes and it was totally worth it!! These are the most stunning Ladies in my flock and I cannot wait until next Spring to order more!!

Blue laced red Wyandotte’s
We ordered these birds in March, they are heathy and a beautiful species. Their feathers are amazing fluffy colors. They are good layers. We are very pleased with them.
Mike –
Great Birds
We purchased three hens with 16 other birds of different breed. We received three hens and a rooster. The birds are all vigorous and healthy. We lost only one bird of the 25 we received the first day..of course it was one of the blue laced hens. they have just begun to lay two days ago. They are gorgeous, well-bred and calm. We find that the rooster is somewhat laid back when compared to the Black Laced Wyandotte rooster. All in all, we’re well-pleased with all the breeds we received and will be back. didn’t count until they were six weeks old and found we had received four of each, rather than the three we ordered. Very generous, but unnecessary. Thank You!
FrankA –
Love them
I purchased the Blue laced red wyandotte last June and they are fine. They all arrived well and I lost none . As they are getting older the blue color is becoming more apparent , just having looked grey to this point.
Christine –
Great birds
I got a few hens and a rooster. I have had them since march and they are doing great. The rooster is actually a large rooster which i didn’t know they get that big. The hens are laying well, so far I’m happy with them.
Al –
Ok
Ordered 6 F, received 7 chicks. One did not make it. 4 of the 6 chicks ended up being roosters, which were not blue, they were gold. The 2 That turned out to be female are blue, and beautiful
Brave Chicken –
Beatiful birds – not very hearty.
We ordered 5, received 5. Only have 2 remaining. At the same time ordered two other breeds. In house pecking, they just didn’t survive as well as Rhode Islands or Domiques.
Shar, Arizona –
Very happy
Got 7 healthy chicks. Looks like 2 females & 5 males. I’ve also ordered other chicks from cackle & I’m very happy with that order also. Will definitely be doing more business here. Thank you cackle Hatchery
TJ HILL –
Most beautiful
I bought a mix of chickens with 3 straight run blue/red Wyandotte’s. I got one roo and 2 hens. They really are stunning. The colors remind me of Tiffany glass. I’m back to buy more. 🙂

Jason California –
The most beautifull girls on the yard
I am checking in 6 moths after my order. I ordered 3 dozen chicks all of the Wyandotte breed. all chicks arrived alive and very energetic. I ended up with 6 males and 6 female of the blue laced reds. I was hoping for a few more females but that’s how it goes when you order a strait run. I will be ordering another batch this spring as soon as the weather warms and the grass starts growing again.
Chicken Mama –
Beautiful healthy babies
Just got my babies today. All are fine healthy birds. Looks like we got 9 hens and 2 roos. Another happy customer! Thats why I keep ordering from y’all.
