The EE braggers thread!!!

my wife says they are pinkish brown, look pink to me.

Okay, thank you! I have five Easter Eggers who are five weeks old, and am hoping at least one lays a pinkish egg, for a more colorful basket.

Thanks!

I have a question, hope you don't mind, but do anybody's EE's lay pink eggs? I've heard that they have, and it advertises it in hatchery's, but does anyone's here lay pink eggs?

Quote: I agree - very light brown. I got one from the feedstore that lays white eggs - I like the blue so I won't be buying any more from that feedstore. They also had one without the fluffy face, I thought maybe it was a different breed - but no - its an EE rooster!

Hatcheries will tell you that when they haven't even tried to keep the blue egg gene - those are truly the mutts of the mutts!-

EEs are so weird. I got these two EE chicks 6 weeks ago. One was really a nice chocolate brown and one was dark black and yellow. Today they look almost just alike! hahaha.....thought I was getting different colors.



Here they are today....at 6 weeks old

They honestly have the same neck and chest feather patterns! Only difference is the top one (which was the brown chick), has that wild duck look. That is what is so fun about EE....you never know what you are getting!

This is my accidental cockerel. We will be keeping him. I was just wondering if anyone has pictures of a boy that was similar to him. I am curious what he will look like when he gets "manly"

They sure are coming up with some new color combinations. I haven't seen one like that before - or the earlier penciled red and white ones. I bet he will be pretty!

Well 46 eggs in the bator and so far at least 15 chicks have popped out. These are all EE & OE. Have a lot of interesting looking colors in there! Including a black one that has a BRIGHT yellow belly! (no it's not yolk, it's feathers

) I'll post pics when they get done and I can open the bator up

Quote: Okay! Here is one of Hazel:



This is Pippy. She doesn't look that stern in real life though.

Those are some seriously cute chicks. I have an EE that can get that ferocious look like your Pippy. EEs are great for giving the stink eye, but it seems to be mostly illusion, as my Monkey is fairly timid.

Here are my Blue Laced Red Wyandotte chicks (light ones) the darker are mixed with EE/BLRW

The fuzzy butt chorus line!

Looks like #1 has just presented a dubious gift to #2.

Just wait, I bet they won't look alike in 6 more weeks!
