Easter Egger club!

[Sylvester017]

My free range girls are hiding their eggs in hard to find places this pick I had to reach for

My little EE girl is hiding in the garage of all places and yes I put the towel in to keep the eggs safe

Ya just never know what them ladys are going to do next it seems I can build all the nesting boxes and the free range chickens will always find their own place to build a nest ...

I had the garage door open for only about 5 minutes and in that time our Breda sneaked in and layed her egg on the cold cement floor and was out in a shot! She ALWAYS uses the coop nestbox but this one day she wanted to be near me while I was doing laundry!

Quote:
I got one of the neighbor kids crawl under and get me some of the eggs so he filled up my hat and collected 19 eggs but there are still plenty of eggs under there or so I was told and my hat would not hold any more eggs safely so I chose 8 of the eggs to go into the incubator for the Easter Hatch ..

We have a Easter Egger named Kitty, after That 70's show Kitty Forman. She is the most precious chicken ever, she is a brown Easter Egger and has the fluffiest muffs. She loves her cuddle time, unless she is freeranging.

We love her so much. We have a flock of 9 chickens. We have one serama, one golden laced wyandotte, 4 easter eggers, 2 Ameraucanas or Easter Eggers (don't exactly know), and one australorpxwellsummer x australorp mix, basically looks like a Australorp. They are all the most precious things ever. I love them and am so glad that we finally got some backyard chickens and I was so badly wanting to be on BYC. And I am just so happy about all the support you get here.

I agree - chickens are the best pets ever and give you returns both in eggs and fertilizer that doesn't burn your plants like dogs/cats (which I love too but am partial to the chickens since getting them). I have been so fascinated with the brown EEs on this thread. There is one that is chocolate brown and they named her Cadbury. Do you have a pic you can post of your brown EE Kitty? And where did you get Kitty?

I got them from Cackle, a friend of mine ordered 21 of them so I just piggy backed on her order and got five

I thought those looked like Cackle cheeks! Mine are from them as well and have the fluffiest faces. Keep us posted as they grow!

I got her from my Grandma. She hatched them out of her own eggs. Here is our precious Kitty:
You can see where our Serama Uma is broody in the background.

Kitty is absolutely gorgeous and I LOVE the practical color of her muff/cheeks that won't show obvious stains from eating/foraging. My Blue Wheaten Ameraucana (my avatar) has very light-colored muffs and are always dirty/muddy from her foraging. What color egg did you say Kitty layed?

 

[serama mamma]

They sometimes change colors. She usually lays a blue one that is really pretty, like the one we got today, and then she sometimes lays like an olive-green just plain, or with speckles, and sometimes its almost like a gray.
Then there is our Serama Uma (who is my avatar) being broody, and one out of the two salmon breasted EE's that we have.
