You may not have seen a reason but he did. There are many ways to train that behavior out of him if your willing to try. Me EE roo was getting pretty bad and after 2 weeks of bootcamp he minds his manners.

Most are friendly but I did have 2 that were flighty. They tamed down after a few weeks of working with them. I was careful to choose a friendly leghorn for the mother. The combs aren't to high but taller than a standard peacomb.

Ladysmith I did an lavender am roo to a white leghorn hen. The offspring recently started laying lg blue eggs. Here is a pic of one. They all came outlooking the same.

Some of this year's chicks. There are more but they won't hold still for pics. Daddy 1 2 3

Thanks. I've been calling it lacing but knew it was not quite right.

What color would you call that hen? I have one almost exactly the same and am not sure of the name.

My newest EE hatch from my own flock.

I'm clear out in Wyo. To far to pick up. Would love to see pics.

Your chicks are the definition of an EE. Any mix breed blue/green egg layer. Many EE actually carry brown or white egg breeds as well. I would love to add such "pure" blue egg breeding to my EE flock.

No the collars didn't work for me. My 2 roos have been surgically decrowed. The bantam is almost silent and the EE is about 25% of full volume. There is a vet in Oklahoma that does it.

Thanks, I'm rather partial to him. I try to borrow roos for genetic diversity but I can't have crowers at my place without complaints. So I am stuck with my 2 "quieted" roos most of the time.

I bred the Lav Am to several EE and a white leghorn. The pullets will be bred back to my recessive white EE roo next spring. He is my primary roo.

I have been very selective on my egg color(this year I borrowed a Lav Am roo for my hatch), also because people around here are used to hatchery birds any shade of blue/green/mint is considered blue egg.

I sell mine as "blue egg laying EE/ Ameraucana" to my locals. There are no shows around here and very few real breeders. Most folks don't understand/care about chickens breeds. They only know the feed stores and hatcheries sell them as Am. I try to explain the difference but they don't get...

We kept a blind pigeon toed RIR for years. Great layer but didn't use a nest box. She seemed happy but got lost alot.

In the last 2 days my broody hens (a frizzle and a silkie) have been busy. 6 EE chicks and 1 EE x Buff chantecler chick out running around. I've never used a broody to hatch before but I must say it's the way to go if you can. 8 eggs set and 7 hatched. Very happy. I'll get pics tomorrow if the...

Don't give up I have 2 white EE hens( whites are usually roos) and 1 hen with rust colored shoulders. Color isn't 100% for sexing chickens. A better shot of the back of the birds neck feathers wouild be helpfull. Also JackieandChicks is right multiple roos will often live together without any...

Love his face, reminds me of a sea eagle.

Today was picture day. Whitey the 8months old roo A couple of his girls. Three of the new babies.

My pink layer the color is all the way through the shell, like a blue. Thats how I check that it is not a light brown/off white.
