💖 The Offical Easter Egger Lover’s Thread 💖

I have a half dozen eggs under my perpetually broody bantam cochin, at the moment. they're from my EE bantam hen by a rose comb Nankin rooster ... ought to be an interesting mix. My EE hen lays the prettiest little aqua egg. I'm hoping to get a least one or two pullets to take after their Mama. Any "roo-lets" will likely be the foundation of my next bachelor flock. I miss the antics and the eye candy!
 
Since people are sharing about their EEs, here is my first and only EE, Cleopatra. She is about 4 weeks old. What's been interesting with having an EE is trying to guess what she'll look like. Her initial wing feathers were gold and black, but then she started getting some dark grey/blue near the tail, and then just yesterday she sprouted this beautiful blonde on her belly and legs! I wonder what she will look like as an adult hen, and what color egg she will lay.
