Hi Farmgirls, I am looking for a type of chicken breed that seems to be hard to get. I only know of one place that has them, but I wanted to see if I can get them cheaper or even swap eggs. I am looking for "Blue Laced Red Wyandotte" If anybody has some of these, please let me know. I would like to get some to hatch. I know it's early, but I like to know where I can get some when the time comes to hatch the eggs. I will have mix turkeys, indian runners ducks,(fawn & white)toulouse geese, production red chickens, buff orpingtons, mix bantams cochins, guineas & peafowls to trade. Thanks for reading this & hope all had a great Thanksgiving!

Smile Jesus Loves Us!!!

Ideal Poultry carries them, but only as bantams.

If you want some eggs from serious breeders, try either

Bill Braden at Land of Tobe (http://www.landoftobe.com/) or
R.M. Presley at Cottage Hill Farms (http://home.earthlink.net/~kdoctor1/)

In all of my poultry groups, these two sources are considered top-notch!

I totally second Erins suggestion. They both have top line stock. You won't be sorry.

I picked up some BLR that came from...(a hatchery I won't drag through the mud) ... but the color is sooo bad. How bad was it? Some of the offspring chicks were blonde with red shoulders. I will probably need to start over with better stock.

Getting the best genetics in this case is more important than getting them cheaper.
