Easter Eggers???

[LisaVMN13]

Hi all, we ordered 3 E.E. chicks. They didn't have beards or muffs, their legs are yellow.
They sort of look like Wellsummers to me.
Can they really be Easter Eggers? Thanks in advance

Welsummers

Thank you, hope they are at least pullets!

They are! Female-specific pattern. Males would be patchy red/brown and black.

They all look like my olive egger, they don't have muffs and most of the time they have welsummer in them.

No, these are purebred Welsummer pullets.

Yay for pullets! I appreciate the input!

There are many Olive and Easter Eggers with coloring similar to Welsummers. While this chick does like a Welsummer, I definitely wouldn't rule out colored eggs. This will likely be a "wait until she lays" situation!
