Easter Egger club!

[User395221]

LOL! Cuz they aren't true Blues or because it's less feed/emotional cost?

Um, they are just called imaginary because I didn't get them. Not really....

I don't lack self-restraint. Oh no, not me.

For those concerned on white@Brooke78, hang in there, they called this one. She lays pretty green eggs as of last week

Watch out for that black and white one. White feathers on the head (the bald eagle look) sometimes is a male only trait.

Here's a great website for EE chicks to adult transformation:

Black and white does not, in any way, indicate gender when it comes to Easter Eggers, any more than red/gold coloring indicating female.

The white one with black in the photo above is a pullet.

This one is also a pullet.

Two of red/gold chicks in this picture are cockerels.

And the red chick on the crate is also a cockerel.

Good to know, I've only seen pictures of the black and white ones, with some very pretty pullets at that! And I was thinking more of the blotchy patches of black and white, not the even color distribution, but I should have specified. Pre-coffee interwebbing Thanks for the pictures!

I had a Black and White EE turn out to be a Rooster, but I also had a Black and White EE turn out to be a hen. Really doesn't matter I'd say.

So I am sure this has been done but I thought it would be fun to see what we all got as a chick and ended up with. This is Easter as a 2 week old chick and adult.

 

[newmarch2014]

And this is Wester as a 2 week chick and adult.
