Meet my Chick!

They are gorgeous but as an Aussie there are a lot of breeds in America I've never seen out here. EEs are really uncommon.

Oh, so very much so!! I mean look at how I keep my eggs! They can’t just lay all over each other in a basket! They have to be in order and rotate

EEs are a cross including a blue egger so I think it could be almost anything But I asked for blue eggs so they could be ameraucana?

I believe those are fairly uncommon in America too & most birds sold as Ameraucanas are actually EEs. I have an Aracauna wo lays a lovely medium sized blue egg. I lost her sister unexpectedly a while ago & with the chicken shortage out here may not be able to replace her for ages.

All of my outside decorations go up on Black Friday. Not a day before. I insist that we hold Thanksgiving as the special day it should be. Christmas has plenty of time to itself. It does not need to leak into October.

I've barely given Christmas a thought. I may do some online shopping while in lockdown

Maybe you can tell me? The bigger greys and yellows?Here’s a pic of their dad, they hatched from blue eggs They’re probably EEView attachment 2417200the little black ones are from a little feisty black bantam w green sheen, red peacomb, black legs n beak. Three of the darkest ones are from my AC x BR girls, and their brothers are the most likely fathers to all of these babies, but I do have a mixed bantam rooster that lurks around the flock waiting for his chance to pounce.

Such beautiful birds. You have a wonderful flock.

So I asked my source and my fluffy legs are EEs, their dad is blue Cochin and moms are apparently ameraucana, she getting me pics of the moms. She also has a ameraucana rooster but every one of my chicks has fluffy legs so I guess the Cochins the dominant rooster. Darn, I was hoping for homo blue genes not hetero, but the fluffy legs are cute. Seems like they’re dominant
