EE Bantam hen

[egglayer3]

My EE bantam is my favorite chicken I have. I was wondering when she will start laying eggs. Also will the eggs be tiny or just a little bit smaller then a full sized hen?

Thank you! Will she start laying the same time as standard ee?

Bantam eggs are usually about half the size of a regular egg...but some can be larger, like bantam cochin eggs or smaller, like really tiny tiny hens.

I would guess that you will need to use two eggs when a recipe calls for an egg.

She is just lovely!

True this! She may or may not be an EE. Her single comb sort of belies that fact; although, some EE have single combs she looks more game in appearance.

Yea it didn't say her breed at the store when I bought her because she was with all the other bantams but when she was a chic she looked just like my other EE

Did she lay an egg yet? Is she a bantam EE. I am interested in several bantam breeds!
