Here is my newest EE her name is Fiona. =]

How old is Fiona?

Her color and pattern screams boy, but everything else looks girl, thin legs, no saddle/hackle feathers, small comb. Her look and coloring is very unusual for an EE girl.

I am not sure how old she is unfortunately, she was given to me.. =( I was assured that she was a girl being that I traded my sultan rooster for her. So lets hope she is a girl! lol

If she is a girl I would say she is nearing point of lay b/c of the bright pink comb / face.

If I were you I would seriously examine the base of the tail where it joins the back for any small saddle feathers just growing in.

Hello Easter Egger parents! Here are my EE Bantam babies. They came from MyPetChicken.com. Anyone have suggestions for what colors to call them? And if they are really girls?

This is what they looked like a few weeks ago (still sort of scruffy teenagers!):

Sybil, almost 6 weeks old:


Edith, almost 6 weeks old:


Mary, almost 6 weeks old:


And some more recent pictures:

Sybil, about 9.5 weeks:


Edith at almost 10 weeks:


Edith and Mary at almost 10 weeks (plus a bantam frizzle cochin butt):


Mary, 9 weeks:



There are more pictures of them in their photo album: https://www.backyardchickens.com/g/a/6451923/easter-egger-bantams/
Sorry, I don't seem to have great pictures of all their tail/saddle/hackle feathers recently, but I don't think they seem pointy.

They look like girls to me! But in regards to the coloring, there really isn't a "breed standard" for coloring since they are just mixtures of various other breeds, including Ameraucanas. You might look at the Ameraucana breed standard and see if yours look like that standard. Wheaten, blue, etc.

Thanks! I know there isn't a breed standard coloring, but I was just wondering if people had terms for the different colors. So far I've just been calling Sybil brown and grey, Edith white, and Mary grey-black and white... none of which really sound very flattering! I'll look at the Ameraucana standards to get some ideas!
