Easter Eggers, 11 weeks

[Dandelion_Farmer]

I hatched a dozen chicks and I got quite a few non-frizzle pullets. They'll still have colorful eggs though, and their genetics include Ameraucana (black and white splash + blue eggs) and Black Copper Maran with deep chocolate and maroon eggs. They're from local breeder Open Gate Farm's large fowl frizzle hatching eggs, but I got quite a few smooth feathered pullets.

Pullets $20:

• 2 white with black speckles
• 1 grey, brown head, feathered feet
• 1 black, white patches on wings (hatched from olive "chocolate chip" egg)
• 1 jet black body, legs and face, with a teal/purple sheen

I also have 4 frizzle cockerels to rehome (free). I think the speckled ones especially could be a great flock foundation if you'd like to have beautiful frizzle easter eggers.

Beautiful eggs!!!!

I wish I could take credit for this particular batch, but this picture is from the breeder I get all my chickens from. I have three hens from last year that lay blue, pink and brown eggs, but I have high hopes for this year's hens.
