I've never had an easter egger chick, but I have seen this happen to a different breed, so yes, it is normal.

Look at silver laced Wyandottes as chick vs adults. I am so confused by my gray chipmunk birds with brown speckled heads becoming black and white beauties.

That is a little male. Make EEs have the rooster red that this little guy has and the pink comb.

Here’s a female version. She looked like your chick when she hatched.

And yes everyone says male. Which makes me sad and mad (just a little) as the EE chicks that were at the feed store were pullets not straight run. So of the 3 i got out of like 50 chicks. I pick one that ended up a crossbeak and died 1 suspected pullet and this roo. Bad luck.

Aww that’s rotten luck. I’m sorry!!

Yes EEs change incredibly from chick to hen. It's very amazing actually to guess the different feather patterns you could get!!!

I'm excited, because I have a lot of easter eggers that will be doing this transformation shortly! Woohoo!
