I am a yes. :)
I just discovered/remembered this weekend I HAVE a couple hens from my favorite hen, and the one lays green eggs! I always thought it was my EE laying those, but she just passed away this year. They are half polish and crazy, so I try not to interact with them too much (they panic/stress out, Polish side).
So I have a few eggs from that crazy Starsky, crossed with Dingus Sr. (he is isbar, and the only reason why he is still around with my hens), and two from what I HOPE is Digger.

Mother convinced me to add two more eggs to my broody who has 4, I recently told myself i wouldn't add late eggs anymore, but she convinced me to, saying its only off by half a day. She now has 6, the two new ones are Buff Orpington hen and Ee rooster (Possibly a mottled java rooster but something tells me thats unlikely )
Also, question, what if the eggs hatch late, as in after day 21, but do hatch- Would they still count as easter chicks in this thread?
 
We have 15 duck eggs that are scheduled to hatch on April 1st if that is within the timeframe of countability 🐣. The shipped ones that we put in the other incubator to hatch on Easter Day were all bad. ☹️
 
I will not be setting eggs today, Rooster is sick and hasn't been mating. After researching it seems to be gout. But he has a few broken pin feathers that has been causing him some trouble, he's not happy with me for pulling them out, but I didn't want him to bleed out. He's been hiding from the girls, like he's just lost his mogo. Disappointed, but we'll be buying a few chick's from our local hatchery and maybe hatch next year.
