Easter Eggers

[noitulover]

i think i've been hit with the brown egg stick

 

[noitulover]

which is okay though, as husband said i could order more until i got a blue or green egg

he knew how much i was hoping for one!!!

I have about 12 EE girls. I get 1 pink egg, a couple green, and mostly blue. You'd be better off hatching some from blue/green eggs than ordering from the hatchery. All the ones I've hatched from my blue/green eggs have always grown up to lay blue/green.
With hatcheries you never know what you're getting.

ETA: Or if you happen to be in FL I'll give you some of the ones I have hatching now.

i wish i was in FL! I'm way up in central VA! I may just have to go ahead buy some purebred Ameraucanas, that way i'm 100% sure there is no brown egg gene in there! hahaha

I have 3 EE/Spangled Russian Orloff mixed hens ~ 2 lay green eggs and the other lays a tan egg.

I will have some blue laying Ameraucanas someday soon!

Well, you can't beat that!

I bought 4 true ameraucana's for the blue eggs. I split an order with another BYC'er. She picked 1, I picked 1, and so on. I proud of myself - I picked 4 pullets! They're 10 weeks old, so I have a while yet before I see those beautiful blue eggs!

You've got a good man noitulover: keep going until you get one..."let's see if there is a blue layer in these 25 chicky sisters???"...

I have two from My Pet Chicken, both lay greenish-blue eggs, one a tiny bit bluer than the other.

Sure thing! I had 3 hactched out this morning when I left and 4 more eggs in the bator. Plus more under a turkey and more under a Cochin.

And I'd be happy to put a batch in the bator for you if you want more!

ETA: Or if you have a bator I'll get you some eggs...I'm overrun with EE eggs right now!
