Wyandotte ( Pronounced why-en –dot ) originated in New York and Wisconsin and were originally named Sebrights but were later named Wyandotte after the Wyandotte Indian Nation in the 1800’s. Wyandotte are fairly docile, get along well with other breeds and have gorgeous plumage in many color varieties. They are a medium weight bird and have yellow skin. They are dual purpose, dependable winter layers with decent sized eggs. Hens weigh 6.5 pounds and Cocks weigh 8.5 pounds. At Westerdale Farms we work with Exhibition Partridge Wyandotte and Blue Partridge Wyandotte.
We have been showing these big beautiful Partridge Wyandotte since 2016. At the NCAP Show in 2020 we had Champion Large Chicken with a Partridge pullet. We have some nice show birds tucked away in hopes we can show at Nationals again someday. Excellent egg layers and a decent size table bird. We may have a couple extra breeding pairs available in the fall.
