Breed Spotlight: Colombian Wyandotte

This pretty hen is a Colombian Wyandotte.  We have 3 of these hens.  Our hens are curious and bold.  They don't mind going on adventures across the yard on their own instead of waiting to go with a group.  They like to be near us but are too timid to be touched.
