The EE braggers thread!!!

[Kassaundra]

Can you EE experts tell me if you think this chick is a girl or boy? Thanks for any opinions.

She is still way to young to hang your hat on any guesses, but just for fun if she were mine I would lean towards girl right now based on that tail, in my experience in EE girls develop tail feathers weeks before boys.

Alright, I need help from you eggsperts out there.

Is this a pea comb? <1 day old chick that just hatched, (s)he was due tomorrow.

Looks like a pea comb, but possibly a cushion comb, too. To early to tell, exactly.

I let all my chickens out just a little bit ago and I was letting my EE's out too and they were running around and cleaning them selves and taking little dust baths My one EE Marie was running and ran right into the garage door XD It was so cute <3 I am also amazed at their ability to fly at such a young age. They were flying everywhere! It was just to cute

11 day old pics today here are a couple of them








There is a chance those light skinned NN are EE too.

That is the best flock and best egg colors I have seen.

my December chicks have grown up and are laying beautiful eggs in a variety of blues, greens, and creams... and the bantam Cochin EE I was so lucky to get from a fellow byc'er hatched one chick out of three eggs in mid winter, a BR x EE, turns out to be a little cockerel, but he's really cute!



























this last one shows the boys during their last day with the girls. they have their own 10' x 20' pen now.

Thank you! I will post again when she's a little older. I hope your right !

Glenda

Cashew out searching for goodies. This spring Glenda developed a feather in her tail with a bit of a white tip. She lays a pinkish egg while Cashew lays a pretty teal blue egg. Both are supposed to be EE's .......wish I had more color layers!!!
