Her legs are white!
Bonnie turned out to be a beautiful Easter Egger hen! She's one of the most gorgeous of our entire flock! We only wish we knew what she was bred with so we can have more! These photos dont do her justice!

She is very striking! The white shanks are unusual for an EE and would be unlikely to have come from crossing to a RIR.
I would be a little concerned about the size of her crop. It may just be the photo angle but it looks like she may be developing a pendulous crop. Might be worth checking her crop first thing on a morning before she has access to food, to make sure it is fully emptying, otherwise a crop bra may be helpful.

Thank you! Any ideas on the mix? And I'll look that up and check her out in the morning, so thank you for that as well!
