    Hes's a splash wheaten the breeder was giving away because his colors were too light for her project. I'm not breeding to standard or anything so I wasn't worried about that, just wanted a handsome flock protector. I guess you could call him an EE since his color is off but he did come from...

    He is a splash wheaten, and a light one at that, but he's still young. I mostly wanted him because he is sweet-tempered and pea-combed, he was a cull from someone's Ameraucana project, but if one of the girls goes broody, would be fun to hatch some EEs!

    Sometimes people are so stubborn you have to wait till they figure out they are wrong on their own. I once got into a debate with someone who was from Sioux Falls, SD, who insisted that Sioux Falls was indeed the capital of SD. I said, well it's Pierre but okay. They said no, I'm FROM there, of...

    she's beautiful! I love the laced reds, and I really like the splash! I've thought about getting some. My Welsummer is named River :-p she is great, especially now that's laying, but she is a total wuss! Lol

    My hatchery birds have all been lovely, including this girl, who gets lots of compliments! I would like to try some local breeders too, though. Especially if I can learn to process the extra cockerels you'll get that way.

    Thanks! I have been waiting for these lovely dark eggs! I got her from the local feed store, Poudre Pet & Feed, in FoCo. I think they order from either Meyer or Cackle.

    I think the lazy Welsummer has finally kicked in! Of course she lays her first egg the day it's 3 degrees out :-p. She hatched April 18.

    The EE braggers thread!!!

    I'm so pleased with my two EEs, for weeks now the only eggs I have gotten have been blue. The other four brown layers are doing nothing but the EEs are trucking along laying in sub-zero temperatures like champs :-)

    Poor frosty chickens. Uzi, I hope your fellow heals up okay! This is my first winter with chickens, I am impressed with how well they are doing. The EEs are outpacing everyone else in terms of laying... I'm only getting a couple eggs a day and they're usually blue. The April-hatched Welsummer...
