I've decided to only raise easter eggers. All my polish and polish project birds have been given to a friend. I am keeping two half polish pullets(dun in color) to breed dun into my easter eggers. How long will it take to eliminate the crest? I want them to raise their own chicks and incubate only sometimes. Are easter eggers good broodies? I am also looking for a buff ameraucana rooster or hen or eggs. I am not looking for show quality. My goal is a self sustaining flock that is very colorful,bearded and colored egg layers.Thanks
