I thought I would link my "Abigail or Abraham?" thread here for the EE experts take a peek at and also to document color patterns.

She *fingers crossed* was a typical looking chipmunk chick we when we got her from the feedstore.

These 2 turned into....The feed on the ground is from my 2yr old neice 'helping' me

Yes she does look like Maya. What did she look like as a chick? She is very pretty. I love her black head with the gold neck feathers.

You all have such beautiful birds and this thread is excellent. Love watching the progression.

I have a question that is EE related but not plumage related, but I cannot find a straight EE thread. I figured this group here could surely answer it....


* I know that EE's can lay blue, blue/green, green, pink, or even brown colored eggs. Are the blue/green colors clearly the most common with pink, cream, or brown being far less so?

Just curious and sorry to post this here.
