Your birds are still very beautiful and you may find the eggs to be even more fun to have EEs as each may lay a slightly different color. I have three EEs and one lays a blue egg (she has a big muff and looks more like a 'standard' Ameraucana), the second lays a light green and the third gives me an olive egg. I had a fourth that laid a sage green egg but unfortunately she passes away recently. It is fun to look at my egg basket and see the various shades. EEs are sweet and fun, too.
