Blue Laced Wyandotte – History

The Wyandotte is a beautiful and useful breed that was named after a Native American tribe which used to live in parts of upstate New York and Ontario, Canada. The first variety of the Wyandotte family was the Silver Laced, which also originated in America, where it was standardised in 1883 (the APA Standard of Perfection). The Blue Wyandotte, however, was admitted to the American Standard in 1977. The variety was later introduced into England and the British breeders immediately perfected the lacings and ground colouring. Blue Laced Wyandotte Bantam is the breed which is relatively new and the colour mixture was developed by crossing the gold laced and the white varieties, which produced the buff laced and the blue laced, first seen here in 1897. The blue colour might vary from light blue to dark blue. Until 2016, the Wyandotte breed was considered endangered and was enclosed on The Livestock Conservancy’s priority list.
