Easter Egger bantam

The male lines were a cross between golden laced polish and bantam araucana.
The female lines were bantam cuckoo marans feather legged.

She is crested, feather legged, black sex-linked of a wheaten type and has a V-shaped comb, almost similar to the pure breed called polish.

Bought her on September 2009.

I enjoy having a little Easter Egger bantam in my flock. They make a great addition to any flock! If socialized them when young they are the sweetest things as adults, otherwise they can be skittish, they just need to see you often and know they can trust you.
You can not beat that egg color especially for a bantam! Occasionally you could get one that lays cream eggs, but sometimes they’ll lay green or blue. They’re egg production is ok, maybe 3-4 times a week. I have a hen that should start laying any time now, I’m looking forward to seeing what egg color I’ll get.
I would definitely recommend this breed, they make a great addition to any flock!
P.S- Baby Easter egger bantams, are the fluffiest and softest chicks I’ve ever raised... even more so than silkies!

I have three EE's and they are all sweet and docile. Personality plays a part but on the whole each is very calm and approachable. Mine will fly to my arms to get treats or say hello. My three lay blue and teal eggs every other day at a year old. Lately they are going broody and I'm having trouble breaking them of it. At least they aren't holding all the getting pulled of the eggs against me.
These are my favorite to watch develop plumage since they have three patterns as they age. They are really good flyers but have done well in my covered coop with high roosts.
My rooster got aggressive and had to go even though he was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen and had been handled throughout his chick hood.

I purchased two pullets and a cockerel from a fellow chicken lover. I don't regret it at all. These birds aren't too flighty, and always know when it's time to roost. They are great foragers, but don't destroy anything. We kept them with full sized chickens for a while, and they were totally fine. they were only pecked two or three times, but otherwise got along just fine. I have never had a red and gray rooster before. All three of them are gorgeous, and our hens are very sweet. They are good friends and prefer to stick together. But my rooster is EXTREMELY cocky. Honestly, if you bought him for what he's worth, and sold him for what he thinks he's worth, you'd be rich. Despite this, he's is very kind to his hens and me. As I said before, I would definitely recommend.
