Baby Chicks: Golden Laced Wyandotte Female Reviews

4.8 Rating 77 Reviews
We have two GL Wyandotte’s. Live in SD, did great in very cold winter temps. Socially good. Excellent egg layers year after year, 5 years and counting. Never broody. Beautiful birds!!

Our GLW Henniken is a beautiful bird. She was raised with a Black Laced Wyandotte and a super blue layer from MPC. She is the least friendly of the bunch even though she was treated exactly the same. We still love her, but we are dying to cuddle her and we can't! Oh well, we have a cuddly Easter Egger, BLW, Super blue and a snuggly polish. I guess we just chalk it up to personality. She lays peewee eggs, and we hope they will get larger as she gets older, but right now they look as small as a bantam's. I am not certain of the breed stock she comes from, but I can say she isn't aggressive and she does come running, you just can't touch or or move toward her without her running off like we are going to eat her right then.

Our golden laced Wyandotte just turned two and lays almost every day. She is the most friendly of our 12 - ordered two with my next batch because we love her so much.

Purchased as day old chicks and every one is thriving at 9wks. I have 10 hens and 2 roosters...my larger roo started crowing for the first time this morning. Very calm and friendly birds and their beauty is unsurpassed. Can't wait until they start laying...probably not until spring as they'll come of age in winter.

We chose to get one gold laced and one silver laced Wyandotte. They both arrived safely and chirping with the rest of the batch, and the gold laced is very cute with her gold stripes down her back. She’s the tiniest of the batch, but very lively and smart, I can’t wait to see her feather out and her rose comb to grow!

My peeps arrived as promised Dec 3, the Postal Agent wanted to see them lol! They have grown and thrived, I am hand raising them and they are learning to love scratches. Each has her own personality at one month old and I adore them- no eggs on the horizon and that’s fine, their beauty suffices! One seems to be half gold, half silver- last to feather in and most friendly so should be fun to see how she turns out

I have one GLW left, the other ran off when it was a few weeks old. They're very adventurous as babies, very beautiful bird now at 6 months old. Friendly, easy going, doesn't wander off too far from the hen house now, let's me pick her up and hold her. Highly recommended, but keep an eye on them when small.

This is our second Golden-Laced Wyandotte. The first one was a beautiful bird but quite antisocial. This one, which we purchased from My Pet Chicken, is not only beautiful, but she's very friendly! Along with our Barred Rock, she's always the first one to jump on her ladder to greet us when we enter their run. She loves greeting us when we bring treats. She is a big, beautiful bird, and we're so glad she's part of our flock!
