Trying to send pictures of 2 birds.  Thinking they are both Roo, what say you??

The white one was supposed to be EE/
Ameracauna and the other one is a cross from a EE/Yellow sex link, don't know for sure on either one.  Thanks in advance!

Whew!!  You all are making me feel alot better about this.  The white one was the first to display "attitude" and is constantly in a battle with the gray one.  The white is very small and has always had a long straight tail.  Any idea what group she fits into?

Your white pullet does not look like an easter egger to me, she looks pretty gamey. 

 

the other bird is a cockeral. He will be a looker!

Well, the kittens aren't so cute anymore and the easter egger cockerels are in the freezer. Plus, I think offering them as "prizes" scared folks off! So, I'm still posting quotes, if you know it let me know. I'm very enamored of this new one, it may hang around for a while!
