Banty versions too!

Here are my bantam ee's.

They arrived in a box from Cackle in mid July. They were not much bigger than marshmallows.

They were staight run. I ended up with 10 little roosters which I had to rehome, and seven delightful little pullets. Here are a few of them, left to right: Maizie, Robin, Penny and Peanut (former runt).

Here is a close up of Robin, the leader of the little girls. She is the sweetest little thing.

How sweet! Very nice pullets! I have 2 EE's that I need to sell. Not sure about their sex yet but they have little muffs and little beards, they aren't bantams but won't be real big I don't think. They're half Araucana and half Maran or Ameraucana. My roosters are true Araucana.

They all have been pea combed and rumpless but they do have enough muffs and beards to call it that. One is blue with a little leakage and the other is red with blue leakage. I'd be happy to take some pics, close ups, for anyone who would want to try to figure out the sex.
They're fully feathered and I would ship them. The cost would be $5 each plus what it costs me to ship them (one box and actual cost to ship). PM me with your email and I'll take photo's for you later today. These have the pea combs so they do have the gene for blue to green eggs, if the maran was the hen they could be olive color.

I just read the post about bantam EE's and I have some of those too. I have a super sweet little true Arauana hen that lays gorgeous blue eggs and I'm getting a purebred rooster for her but I've been breeding her to my Serama roosters and getting the prettiest, softest little bantams. They are mostly black, have a tail and are smooth faced. Some are pea combed.
They have been selling well here but I may have a few hatching before I have the other rooster here.

Well, I can't bring home any more birds at the moment, but sure would love to see some photos; they sound so unique.

I love it! The way she is standing so tall and proud; somebody knows she's hot stuff.

Have to share my little rumpless EE Collette, I hatched her from Chookschick eggs. She is about 10 weeks old in this pic.

Golly she's something. I love the muffs and rumplessness together like that; it really is different. How's her egg color?

She isn't laying yet only about 12 weeks old, but she came from a blueish greenish egg, so I am assuming she will lay the same color. Funny thing is Renee said she doesn't have any rumpless chickens, so the gene had to be hidden somewhere along the lineage.
