Easter Eggers from Ideal?

[Ajp23]

Does anyone have Easter Eggers from ideal poultry? We went to the feed store last week and got two chicks but what I found interesting is that in the Easter egger brooder (all from ideal) they all looked identical! Usually when I’ve seen Easter eggers, they are varied in color.

Makes me interested in their breeding - wondering if anyone can share pictures of their Ideal Eggers either chicks or adults!

Adding a picture of one of mine as an example. They ALL looked like this, 50+ of them.

I have two beautiful Easter eggers from Ideal. They look very similar, but one has puffy cheeks and the other doesn't. One has yellow legs and one has green. The one that doesn't have puffy cheeks, and has green legs looks extremely similar to my Welsummer, also from Ideal.
I'll look for pictures.

This is one of my Easter Eggers from Ideal - I believe Emily.

Also Emily. Apparently I don't have a picture of Charlotte.

And this is what their eggs look like, so I can confirm they are Easter Eggers. They faithfully lay 5 eggs a week, I think, though they just started laying 3 weeks ago.

That's funny. I have 3 Easter Eggers from Ideal and they're all completely different looking. Here's the one that looked similar to yours when she was a chick:

And here are my other 2:

I wonder if Ideal has changed the breeds they use. I bought mine in September 2024. When did you get yours?

Oh my goodness, they are all so beautiful!! Thank you for sharing pictures.

Mine are still looking identical at five weeks old, I’ll try to get some pictures. It’s been very interesting because we’ve had a lot of Easter Eggers and no two have ever looked the same!
