💖 The Offical Easter Egger Lover’s Thread 💖

[pipdzipdnreadytogo]

Easter-eggers have been a part of my flock since my very first chick of my own as a child back in 2005, a mostly white Easter-egger who I named Ducky. Needless to say, I love them. I don't know if I could stand to have a flock without the variety they bring both to the flock, itself, and to my egg basket.

These are all the Easter-eggers I own right now.

Fifi:

Mona:

Ganymede, who is half Silkie, half Easter-egger:

Endymion:

Wynne:

And Merlin, the oldest bird in my entire flock at 12-and-a-half years old now:

I also just lost my beautiful Cressida to old age a little over a week ago, may she rest in peace. She was 11 years old, same age as her last remaining broodmate, Wynne.

Lets see last time I had EE was EE bantams that where gifted to me from my neighbor in like 1994 or 1995. I was showing broilers in 4-H and she let me pick some out from her little flock so I could have some chickens that lay pretty colored eggs.

Had a rooster and I think 4 or 5 hens. Roo was all black except for hackles, saddles and wing crown that where golden. A few of the hens where all black with golden edging on their hackles. The reset where a red brown color.

I loved that roo so much when he got beat up by the neighbors roo he got to spend two weeks in the bathroom getting nursed back to health. From then on anytime I was in the yard with them and the other roo showed up he ran to me and kinda hid behind my legs.

Fifi's definitely a favorite for me as well! She's got looks and personality, not to mention that amazing beard of hers.

I love EE threads and my EEs!!

Honey - my partially blind EE with a heart shaped pupil in one eye, she lays blue!

These are my bantam EEs Rolly, Penny, and Dottie - can’t wait to see what color eggs they lay (Penny and Dottie)

And this is Peaches! Hoping she lays green!

Well, I’m not the best at taking photos, but I want to share!

This is Coco. She’s two years old and lovely! The other chicken pictured is Tweety, don’t mind her.
