Ok thanks! I am hoping for a blue or green layer lol

that's generally what EE lay; either greenish or blueish tinted eggs. We have 3 and 2 of the fluffy faced ones lay blueish eggs and the long faced girl lays greenish tint. They are are smaller sizes than rest of our flock but the eggs are nearly pure yolk which is kind of cool!
Enjoy your EE, our customers absolutely love them

This is Frost. Frost is almost 10 months old and has not laid an egg yet. She does not show any interest in the nesting boxes or anything that has to do with eggs. She also never squats. Anyone else have a chicken that appears to be a permanent freeeloader?? We love her dearly and will gladly keep her as a pet, however, I'd like to know if this is normal.
Thank you!

With looks like that I wouldn't care if she lays or not!

Are you sure Frost is not a rooster?

What do you feed? I've found that Easter Eggers need a high protein feed to be productive.

@summerb123 JuneBugGena knows what she's talking about. She suggested a higher protein food before so I switched from layer pellets to flock grower with 20% protein. In less than a week almost all of my girls started laying everyday. I at least 17 eggs a day, but a couple days ago I got 21 eggs from 24 active layers in one day!
