I have 20 Easter Egger chicks in the brooder! I'm a sucker for fluffy cheeks! I'm hoping for mostly roosters, since I'm pretty much maxed out on hens right now. I can't wait to see what colors I get! The brown ones are Easter Eggers, and the light colored ones are EE X RI reds, EE X BLRW, and EE X Wheaten marans. You can read more on my progress with them here: https://www.backyardchickens.com/a/a-journal-of-raising-baby-chicks-naturally

OMG 20 EE chicks? I am a sucker of fluffy chicks too. They are so cute. Right now I have 14 EE chicks 3 mixed breed and 1 leghorn.

This is Adi at 7 weeks. What do you think boy or girl?

That is a bit, sorry. Seen too many that color. The white us too white with the Columbian coloration to be a pullet.

mymilliefleur-
Your babies are so super cute!!

Thanks everyone on your thoughts on egg color. I will lean towards that one being a ee egg unless I can catch who lays it in the act.

Here is a picture of my new Easter egger that I got from my feed store on Monday. The only Easter eggers they had left were her and a little brown one, I already have a brown Easter egger so I picked her. I love her feather patterns, she is so pretty!

This is a picture of her:



She is the one in the front, she has a tiger-like stripe on her back. Does anyone have an idea of what she will look like as an adult?

I can't wait to see how the EE x BLRW and EE x Wheaten marans turn out!

Me too! I had a EE X BLRW cockerel last year, and he was beautiful, white with red speckles, a blue neck, and a little blue lacing on his chest. Unfortunately I lost him to a predator when he was only a few months old.
