Description
The Golden Laced Wyandotte was originally called the “American Sebright”. They are a heavier breed that can be broody and have an assertive personality. As with most chickens, they are good foragers and handle most types of weather well. Due to having rose combs they are very good at avoiding frostbite in the winter. The Wyandotte is a popular backyard and show bird. Chicks are black and golden brown with light underbellies. They also typically have light brown stripes down the back.
