Many easter eggers do not get the green color to their legs until 2-5 weeks of age. Mine had yellow legs until then!

I ordered a “Hatchery Choice” of Easter Eggers, they were all white with yellow legs. Some have developed more color to their feathers as they’ve grown, still yellow legs and they should start laying soon. I’m just hoping i did indeed get EE and that they dont all lay the same color. I see where people say once a hen lays an egg she will always lay that color egg but last spring I bought 2 hens for white eggs to add some color for my customers. They laid light brown eggs until this summer and now I’m getting 2 white eggs.Quote:
EEs are like a box of chocolate, as Forest Gump would say. You never know what you're gonna get, they come in any color for plumage, leg and beak as well as any style comb and any egg color... although green, blue and brown are most common egg colors. They're truely the suprise package chicken.
What? Tell me please. I have a 4 week old rooster with very yellow legs, cheek muffs, lavender feathers that are laced with a buff color. He's huge!Are you assuming this chick is an EE just based on the chipmunk pattern? There are other breed that have that type of pattern as chicks, yellow legs and all. Good luck
He is an EE.This is my 2 month old rooster Raymond. Still not sure what he is but people say Easter Egger. He's got the cheeks but his legs are bright yellow orange. He's very blue with splashes of a reddish brown, does he look like an Egger to you?
Thank you! Another possibility I'm wondering about is a Blue Wheaten Amerucana. What do you think?Also, welcome to BYC!
He's not any sort of Ameraucana.Thank you! Another possibility I'm wondering about is a Blue Wheaten Amerucana. What do you think?
