Easter Egger Question

Quote:
That's what my EE does exactly. First one to greet me in the morning and does her little cry when she's begging for a treat. She has the best personally out of them all.

I have 3 EEs I bought form quailantwerp after I lost a lot of my pullets to dog attack.

They were just finishing up molting. I had an egg the first day. Then the other 2 started laying, and I get eggs from them almost everyday.

They are not used to being handled, but they are not mean, or miserable at all. I call the them 3 biddies. They tend to stick together and with my roo.

I have both Ameraucanas and Easters Eggers although I have not had a lot of EEs in the past I have not found either to be overly aggressive. There is the occasional whap on the head while on the roost but that's it.

I would imagine the EEs are like any other mutt, the range of personalities probably runs the full spectrum. I have a bunch of EE chicks - minus a dozen I just sold - and I don't find the chicks to be any different than the Ameraucanas and Welsummers that they are in with right now.

Next year I plan to make a lot of different EEs as I will be crossing my Wheaten and Blue Wheaten roos over just about everything else I have. Should be interesting.

God Bless,
