Someone just gave me salmon faverolle eggs which I've always wanted some. I have a crested cream legbar flock. Could I breed the two and make my own strand of Easter Eggers? Just thinking ahead. Lol picture of my CCL

I’m pretty sure that they would lay blue eggs. Also, It depends on what your opinion on what an EE is.

That will surely meet The Ameraucana Alliance Definition of what's an EE

What are Easter Egg chickens?
The Ameraucana Alliance defines an Easter Egg chicken or Easter Egger as any chicken that possesses the blue egg gene, but doesn't fully meet any breed descriptions as defined in the APA and/or ABA standards. Further, even if a bird meets an Ameraucana standard breed description, but doesn't meet a variety description or breed true at least 50% of the time it is considered an Easter Egg chicken. By definition an Easter Egger is not a breed of chicken.
