Wyandot purebred chickens

One of the most beautiful breeds with conspicuous plumage is Wyandot chickens. The breed is named after one of the North American Indian tribes. The breed was bred not by the Indians by the method of folk selection, but by American breeders by complex crossing of 6 breeds of chickens at once. Wyandot took his “shirt” from the decorative breed Seabright, which is distinguished by a special color of feathers: each feather is bordered with a contrasting stripe, which makes the feathers seem to be traced by the artist. From the Brahma and Cochin Chinese meat breeds, the Wyandots gained a large body size, the Leghorn improved egg production, and the meat and egg Orpington and Dorging helped to stabilize the breed. Initially, the chicken was bred not only to please the eye, but also to supply the owners with high-quality meat and eggs. The breed coped with its task perfectly well. It is enough to see the massive body of birds of this breed in the photo to understand how heavy this chicken is in its group. Wyandottes are growing fast. Chickens at 1.5 months weigh 1.2 kg. Males already gain about 3 kg of weight by six months. Further, growth slows down and it becomes economically unprofitable to keep extra males. Hens become sexually mature at 6 months. A young laying hen lays 180 eggs per year, weighing about 55 g. The first chickens will appear on April 18. !Quantity is limited! Some of the eggs were brought from Europe, some from breeders near Moscow! Young blood and purity of the breed is guaranteed!
