My babies were sold at Atwood’s as “Americanas,” so I’m going to assume they’re EEs Whatever they are they sure are cute.
You can find more info about them if you look at my profile and postings!

I have three EE that are almost 5 weeks old. The darkest one looks like she is going to have a lot of white in her! Cannot wait to see their adult plumage. The one tagged with pink is the friendliest of the bunch.

I've seen this question several times (at least once my me!): "My EE chick looks like X. Anyone know what s/he will look like as an adult???"

Of course, no one knows, which is part of the fun. But I thought we might start a thread with pics of our uber cute chicks and the gorgeous adults that they become. I'm going to start, but since my chicks are only a few weeks old, I'll update with new pics as time goes by. And whenever they start laying eggs (COME ON GIRLS!), I'll post a pic of their egg colour as well!


EDITED WITH UPDATED PICS (Age now approx 18wks)
Pics are few days, 3-4wks, 8wks, 18wks



"Leader" - total spaz and no longer the leader.

"Nugget" my husband's former fav and VERY late feathering. I have the hardest time telling Leader and Nugget
apart now, though they looked NOTHING alike as chicks...
Also going from coal black to very golden in colouring. Now hard to tell apart from Leader (above).

Lightest (renamed Greywing) - check out the bluish wing feathers (it's more striking than in the pics)!!!

The twins (no names at the time) - I couldn't tell them apart at the beginning.

This is PastyButt (s/he was my one chick who pastied up). Has now been renamed Cupcake, as PastyButt was
probably not appropriate. VERY late feathering as well. Now basically black/white with some tan on the chest.

Beautiful

They are adorable! It will be interesting to see what they grow up to look like. I am wondering what mine are going to be like when they grow up.

How old are Easter Eggers before you can tell what sex they are
