How long to bake chicken drumsticks?

[Aurora63]

I have 6 chicken drumsticks in the oven at 450. How long should it take for them to be done? I'm clueless. Thanks!

Anyone?

Are they completely thawed? If so, I would check them at 30 minutes at 450.

450 seems to high!! I would say 350 for about 45 minutes!

I personally would reduce the temp down to about 350. Then check them after about 35 minutes. Make sure that that the juices run clear when you prick them with a fork. Cooking them at 450 runs the risk of burning the skin. If they are frozen, I would cook them for about an hour.

Thanks for all the tips! I reduced the temp...I think they'll be fine now.
