Silver Laced Wyandotte Chicken
The Silver Laced Wyandotte is the original and most popular variety of the ubiquitous Wyandotte Chicken breed. Originating in New York, they were admitted to the Standard all the way back in 1883. Though no one knows the exact way they came about, they were most likely a mix between Dark Brahmas and Spangled Hamburgs.
Wyandottes are hardy, active, medium-sized birds who provide enough size to be considered for their meat but are mainly used for egg production.
The Silver Laced Wyandotte is known for its beautiful silver laced plumage. Males and females do have a varying plumage. The males have silvery white heads with each feather bearing a black stripe. They also have a silvery white back with a black tail. Females have a silvery gray head with a black tail.
They produce around 200 large brown eggs a year in their first few years of laying. TheyÀ_re very easy to care for and a great buy for first time or novice owners. They adapt well to confinement and flourish in free range situations as well. Being docile, hens will brood infrequently and make excellent mothers.

Received 7 chicks. Five chicks were very healthy and one was very weak and died next day. One chick I received was already dead and very dry. I think a dead chick was just mailed with the live chicks. I don’t know why. Over all I am very happy with my 15 chicks.

Doing well. They’re the smallest out of the order but also the hardest to catch! They’re very quick but are the slowest growers so far.

Elizabeth Whitson –
Our order was not going to be able to be fulfilled with the amount of Sliver Laced Wyandottes we requested, so eFowl called us and asked if we would like to substitute Gold Laced ones instead. eFowl included a few extra chicks in our order to make sure we would get our full amount. The chicks arrived safely and all were alive. They are thriving! We are so happy with eFowl’s customer service and our first time experience ordering chicks online. We are definitely customers for life!

All chicks arrived healthy and I have had no losses in their first week.
Jessie Wheeler –
Chicks are a week old now, growing fast. Assimilating to barn life well. Very smart, bold personalities but still friendly and easy to handle. Seem interested in interacting with humans and the outside world. They love it when my husband plays the guitar and will sit down in the brooder and stare at him – all five like a bunch of chicken groupies. No signs of illness.
Wayde S Lerbs –
ok
Rebecca Berzas –
Great service
Vicki Andronis –
I ordered these baby chicks and as promised, I received them on time and in perfect health. They’re a little over two weeks old and have grown so much. I’m amazed!..I would recommend to anyone to buy from eFowl.
Carolynn Shultz –
I received 5 Silver Laced Wyandotte Chicks in a total order of 25 chicks. I received them about a week ish after I ordered and the chicks came next day to my post office after I received shipping notification. I’ve had the chicks 1 1/2 weeks now and ALL of them are thriving! I am VERY pleased with efowl and will use them again, this is my 2nd time using them.
Anonymous –
Excellent.
Kim –
I ordered 4 SLW pullets plus one roo as the 5 chick minimum/breed. I received 5 pullets plus the roo. The roo had orange dye on his head. All but one perked up within an hour of placing in the brooder. I put a little sugar in their water and coerced the little girl to drink and she perked right up in no time. They are almost 2 weeks old now, all healthy and happy. I also ordered Welsummers and EEs. Of the 3 breeds, these are the smallest and most docile and the slowest to develop feathers. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with my order.
John Stagner –
We are very impressed with our chickens and turkeys we received! They did very well right out of the box. My in laws, who have had chickens for years also were very impressed with them and how good they did. We will be recommending you guys to anyone we know that is looking at getting some chickens!!!!!

pleased with the Customer Service’s quick response with e-mailed questions and the friendly assistance when I called in. Chicks arrive healthy and alert. Will definitely recommend and use again!
in.
Halden Curtiss –
Very good.
Christine –
All happy and healthy (7 chicks) – lost none. When arrived gave them warm water with little sugar- dipped each beak into water supply so they knew where to get it. We fed them the super-hydrating gel that came with the feed starter kit- they really loved that- along with grass clippings and starter feed & starter grit that came in the feed starter kit. Kept temps around 97-102 F the first night- then they seemed happy at 95-97 F the next day. One week later they are happy around 90F- with no drafts. Also received 11 Barred-Rock and 7 Easter Eggers chicks- all doing well- lost none.
Lydia Richard –
Excellent, excellent service. Chicks arrived healthy and thrived beautifully. Would highly recommend eFowl to anyone looking to buy live birds online.

Your product is excellent. I received all healthy birds in excellent condition as you promised
Scott Frampton –
The entire process was great, except for the length of time in shipping. But all the baby chicks are doing fantastic.
I just wish there was an alternate shipping method – they were shipped on Monday and I didn’t receive them until Wednesday.
Crystal Wilhite –
These chicks arrived healthy and energetic. They have been such a great addition and are so cute and fun to watch.

The chicks arrived safe and sound, we ordered 15, got 16. None of them were DOA. One passed away on the 2nd day though 🙁 The rest of them are doing wonderfully, healthy and darling! I would order from efowl again for sure!
Colleen Cavagna –
These chicks are quite pretty with a lot of unusual markings. Can’t wait to see what there final markings look like. More aggressive than the buffs or australorps, especially the rooster. He is a hoot, strutting around.
Casandra Emert –
Received 11 SLW chicks all healthy and good
MARGARET EVERSOLE –
Chicks are beautifully marked and healthy. Placing the order was easy. When I’m ready to breed I hope that you will send me just one rooster. Would hate to have to order 15 of those bad boys.
Bart Haddix –
All arrived healthy and are doing very well. Only problem was my contact phone # was not on the box and the post office had to look it up. Overall great job on shipping, communication and very healthy chicks. THANKS
Melanie Ware –
I would use this service again
ferrel atwood –
all are doing great.
lacie williams –
Im very satisfied with the quality of the birds but your ordering system is louzy at best. You have to pay for the bird’s first only to find out via email they will be shipped months later. Probably will not use your service in the future. Wouldn’t recommend you either.
–Dear Lacie,
I’m sorry for the confusion with our ordering process. On each breed page you will find a description of “Availability”, for example the Silver Laced Wyandottes you purchased have an availability of 8-10 weeks. This means Silver Laced Wyandottes will take approximately 8-10 weeks before they will be available to ship to you. Unfortunately we do not have every breed of chicken hatching at all times and our hatcheries often have to adjust numbers of breeds based upon order sizes. Again I’m sorry to hear about your poor experience, we strive to send our birds as quickly and safely as possible within reason.
-Harry, Customer Service Rep.
