I found this from their brochure incase anyone is interested. Although mine have blotchy green/yellow feet.
 
Here are my Hoover’s EE’s single comb and yellow legs. No tufts. Got a polish in the mix too 🤷🏼‍♀️

Hatchery easter eggers all look the same and are boring to me. And if their breeding an ee rooster over hens not all will even be colored layers
 
Pretty much!! I was just interested if anyone had the “new” EE or knew any info of this “grunleger”. The two I got so far look like one will be blue and one looks maybe black and white mottled?? They’ve a long ways to go yet before they get their final coloration in though!
A friend of mine purchased 2 EE from TSC this past April, they do NOT resemble the EEs I'm "used to". One had the Legbar tuff, no colored legs, no muffs, straight combs ... When Kiko grew out her feathers, first thing came to mind "leg bar" ... Disappointed, they'll lay colored eggs but personality is different from EEs I've had in the past.

This pullet came from rural king . She was labeled as an EE. She is an obvious legbar mix. I have 4 EE that came from the same bin . Two are like this one and the the other 2 have no crest or muff. All 4 do have yellow legs though. She laid her first egg yesterday.

All 3 of my TSC easter eggers from hoover hatchery look like this. One lays a green egg, one lays a tan egg, and I am waiting to see if the third one crows or lays an egg. My other chickens are all brown layers. I was hoping to get more variety with the 3 easter eggers but doesn't seem like there will be much variety.
 
UPDATE: Kiko the one pictured above egg is brown. Thought she was laying the blue but it's the younger WTG I have. The older WTG lays green, still waiting on the other EE. Weather's been different so thinking the cause of these laying "late" vs all the past I've had. 24+wks and still waiting on one EE.

These are my tsc/hoovers pullets from this year. About 12 weeks now. 7 out of 10 have a crest, all single combed and all yellow legged. One grew its comb like crazy overnight just these week, which I find interesting. None have beards or large ear tufts.
I know this is a very old thread but was hoping @Bitofablonde was still on the website. Wondering what the light colored girl's looked like as baby chicks because I have all light yellow chick from Hoover that's supposed to be an Easter Egger. Was wondering if she'd grow up to look like your gorgeous girls.
