Anyone for Green Eggs and Ham

Yipee!!

Our first ever eggs (2 the same day) were green. Before we decided to raise chickens-( this year!) we never knew colored eggs existed outside of the easter basket-- I dont' think I can live without my rainbow eggs now!! I'm getting green, medium brown, light brown and a pinkish color. Waiting on my blues to come---- the crew that should lay those aren't quite old enough just yet !

Ann - how old is your EE? Our three were 20 weeks old yesterday and still nothing yet, even though the Australorp looks fully mature at this point. Phyllis

They'll be 24 weeks old later on this week.

Oh now I can't wait for the EE's to start laying! Mine are 20 weeks old this week. I was really hoping that they would maybe be early layers but no chance. The California Whites, barred rock, and silver laced wyandotte started laying at 16 weeks. Although I do have 1 white rock that is really just taking her time about things too. She is the same age as the older ones, 6 months, and nothing yet. Keep telling dd that she will make a nice Christmas lunch.

BTW they are getting artificial light since daytime is at best 10 hours here.

Oh Congratulations!!! I want some green eggs!! Heck I would take any color at this point

I am expecting the greenies any day now!!! Yours is so pretty!!!

I am envious.

I want some for next year, 3 hens to be exact. I am in Maryland. Would it be best to get them from MPC or somewhere else? EEs are fine, I do not need a pure bred since they are not going to be bred. I am sure all the other envious folks would like some advice, as well.

Thanks.

Mine came from the local feed and grain store. I bought three also. I will say, however, after hanging around here for awhile, I'm going to stick to breeder stock from now on, so I'd go for true Ameraucanas rather than the so-called mutt Easter Eggers.
