Are Easter eggers bantams or full sized birds and what size eggs do they lay? Post pics if you have some

 

[Pyxis]

They can be both bantam and full sized Here are a few pictures of mines:

Beautiful. Are the roosters aggressive?

 

[Pyxis]

Not the ones I've had, at least while I had them. My aunt had one that was very sweet until a kid kicked it, and then it started going after people. But I think mostly it varies from bird to bird. My hens are great, though!

Where do you get them from?

 

[Pyxis]

You can get them from hatcheries, or get hatching eggs from people and hatch them - or you could check your local craigslist and see if there are any for sale. I just had my buff orp hatch three for me from my own eggs.

I only have one hen that's laying and I don't think she's broody. Will they sit on just one egg or does it take a couple?

 

[Pyxis]

Some will sit on nothing at all. What breed is she? Some breeds go broody all the time, while others don't. She'll also stop laying if she's broody and sit on the nest all day long, except to get up once a day for food and water. If you had an incubator, you could hatch the eggs that way.

She's a black sex link. I made an incubator but I'm on my first batch now. I messed up and got them in on 3 different days. From the 4th, 5th, and today. I didn't think would hurt anything but I forgot about lockdown

What's the best humidity? I can't find any recommendations on that
