I have 5 EE crossed with Golden Comet pullets who are about 16 weeks. A few of them are starting to get small wattles and small combs, but they look mostly like Ameraucanas more than Golden Comets..how big should i expect their combs/wattles to be. Anyone have pics of mature EEs? For example, I have a typical looking wheaten, a solid white, and a calico type with the beard. The other two look more like Golden comets but have green legs. Their combs and wattles look to become more prominent I believe. Anyone?
 
Mine's not the same coloring as yours, but I'll have a pic for you in a minute. Uploading now.
 
Here's the best one of her head. It was taken yesterday and she's been laying for 2 weeks.

whoops-I guess I didn't wait long enough for it to load-I have one that looks similar to that-maybe they will lay soon!
 
Great! I have a EE looks just like her and am also waiting on eggs! She will be 24 weeks next week.
