The EE braggers thread!!!

[CCCCCCCCHICKENS]

Can I join this thread????? I have three EE pullets ( one might be a cockerel not sure) and I love all of them they are all beautiful birds and quite friendly. Two will jump up on my shoulders. One actually grabbed an earring out of my ear and ate it.

It was my favorite pair too.

and i can't believe that one of them ate one of your earrings!

I can't believe you let them back on your shoulders near your shiney eyeballs after they ate a shiney earring!!!!!!!!!!!

I had to give up my pierced earrings when I got my first little guy. Now I cant even get earrings in if I wanted too since the holes closed! Well worth having him as a baby on my shoulder though.

Is the red on the wings ALWAYS true? I have one hen, ginger who is red and white lace on her front half, but the red gets EXTREMELY dark on the wings, while it's only a light red on the rest of her body, but I know she's a pullet.

more EE chicks! hatched yesterday from morning til evening... my broody bantam can cover 5 LF eggs, one broke during the first week, one was rejected about day 16, but she's 3 for 3 on the remaining. all are from the same EE sire, one chick is BR x (cream egg), one is BSL x (brown speckled egg), and one is EE x (blue egg) AND... my sweet broody laid an egg of her own already.

That is so sweet! What a good mama

Yeah I am not letting them on my shoulder since she ate it.

Ok here are some pictures of my three birds. They are 10 weeks old today!!
She is the one that ate my earring. Same bird. This is my second EE. I can't tell if it's a boy or girl. But he/she has really pretty feathering. And this is my third EE.

Hika Ma at 15 days old! He's starting to get black and white feathers on his chest and neck.

Pretty sure he's a boy at this point. Check out this comb!

I've been anxiously awaiting eggs from my OE pullet who's about 7 months old. I noticed she was starting to squat this week, so I have been keeping a close eye on her. She finally laid her first egg today - it isn't olive, but is a beautiful turquoise color. So I guess she can join the EE ranks

I hatched her out from some BCM x EE hatching eggs I got from a forum member.









Her egg between my wheaten marans and lakenvelder eggs, it's a really pretty shade of blue!
