Picture: 4-day old babies (ignore the two d'uccles in the upper left corner) Name: Not yet named
Class: 7 Chicks
Color: (name your EE's pattern!) Variety of colors: 1 gray, 1 black, 2 striped, 3 brownish black
will have to see how they feather out have some 7 week olds that looked like the brownish black chicks and they ended up brown/black and black/white Notes: a couple of these guys have got some mad ninja skills already - foot first jumping (must have inherited it from their daddy)
One of these may not be thriving (tiny black one in the middle. I gave him some diluted raw egg with a drop of honey, & liquid vitimins. He's drinking it but seems to think he has to stand in the bowl like he's going to absorb thru his feet. LOL)
Picture: Daddy
Name: Hansel Class: Rooster Color: (name your EE's pattern!) I don't know what it could be called...black & beige were his two main colors
Notes: He started attacking me and I wasn't going to put up with it so I culled him a couple of weeks ago
Picture: EE hen Name: Snowy
Class: Pullet/Hen
Color: (name your EE's pattern!) White
Notes: this is a picture of her when younger before the rooster loved on her too much. The blue eggs hatched all came from her (just recently started getting blue eggs from 2 other EE pullets
but haven't tried hatching them.

This is Agnes our EE pullet. She is 12 weeks old and such a sweet friendly girl. She is our only EE, in a group of 12 other breeds. She is a favorite because of her beautiful coloring! Her head is a shiny black, and reminds us of a hawk.
