Snowy Easter Egger?

[TheRealGwynethPoultry]

Hi! This is Yellow, our sweet Easter egger. I’m wondering if she’s a snowy? She has absolutely no other color in her feathers except for white. She has super green/blue legs! She was completely yellow when we got her, hence the name given to her by my 2 year old my other two Easter eggers were chipmunks when they were super little, and have feathered out very brown!

Yellow at 4ish days

Yellow now at 4.5 weeks

I’m new to chickens, so I don’t know much about feathering out and colors and all that! But I think it would be super cool to have an all white Easter egger. We will love Yellow no matter what color she is!

That is an Snowy Easter Egger. You can tell she's an Easter egger by the green legs and the muffs on her face.

Wow thanks!! That’s so exciting considering we got her out of a random bin at our feed store! We love her.

I'm not sure what you mean by snowy, easter eggers can be any mix of chickens that are like to lay a colored egg. It's unusual to see an all white on though. She will be pretty.

A “snowy” is just a fancy label for an EE that happens to be white. An EE is just a fancy label for a mutt that happens to lay colored eggs. At the end of the day, EEs are crossbreds. I do really love em though

When I was looking at ordering chicks online, there was a breed listed as Snowy Easter Egger on mypetchicken! I thought it was pretty, but decided to go to my feed store for birds instead. Now I know it’s just a fancy name for a regular chicken still cool I ended up with one anyway!

Yes, there are all white EE. Bc they are “mutts” they can exhibit many colors and patterns. We requested light/white EE this year, and we have 2 (out of 6) that are all white -one has some light color at tips of some feathers though.

Would white Ameraucanas be “snowy” I’m very interested in this now I have 2 white Ameraucanas I may try to hatch out some snowy EEs
