I bought these chickens today and was told they're all female easter eggers about 3 months old. I don't necessarily doubt what the seller told me, I just want confirmation.
2 of them, Mimosa and Colada are quite a bit larger than the other two, is this just because they're "mutts"? Or do you think they're a little older?
Thanks!

They all look female, but Easter egger? I wouldn’t be too sure. They definitely don’t look like typical Easter eggers, but they could be mixes. Mojito looks the most like an Easter egger in my opinion just b/c I have a half Easter egger who looks the same.
 
Well, I agree they all look like pullets at this point. But I agree, they don't look like typical easter eggers.
Mimosa looks like a partridge cornish.
Colada looks like the mix known as a California white.
Julep, does she have pink feet? She could be a lavender orpington.
Mojito looks like the mix known as sapphire gem.

Unless these guys are home bred, I don't think you're going to get colored eggs from them.

That's really cool actually! Thank you for the info! I wasn't too picky with the breed we got, I just wanted them to be calmer and good layers.
The person we got them from breeds show chickens and has a ton of different breeds and she told me that most of her chicks are mixed breed. I suppose when she said "easter egger" she actually meant "mutt."
Regardless, as long as they're all girls, I'm happy. 😊

Well, if that's the case, I'd say that they're all mixes of what I said above. They could lay any color based upon that.

Do you have pictures of their combs?
