Alright blue and pink layers you are going to have a nice Easter egg basket this year

That is what I do enjoy about the EE's the most is the different colored
egg's and raising up the chicks to see which ones will produce which
colors ....

Also the little kids at Easter time when I give them the eggs to color
and just sit back and watch what the reaction is and how they go
about coloring them if at all ......

Since I started back with chickens in 2009, I haven't raised but 1 (Easter Egger) pullet that didn't lay a blue or green egg. She died not long after she started laying so I never hatched any of her eggs.

My EE pullets are starting to lay at 24 weeks. I just found an egg from a second layer today! The strange looking oblong egg is the newest layer's egg. Now I have a pink and blue layer!

That blue one looks like a double yolker. Wheeee!

Here is my rooster that I'm thinking about putting in with my EE girls. His dad was a buff silkie and mom is an EE. What do you think I might get??

Here are the girls. The rooster with them is leaving. He's not very nice to people.

My EE girl has been looking really red lately, and has in the last few days started checking out the nest boxes, and today, was the first squat!!! Here's hoping to finding out what color egg she lays in the next few days!!!

Oh I am so sorry they are such A beautiful bird and to me just a joy to have around
as the EE is such a docile chicken if you ever get the chance to raise them again I
hope you get all the colorful egg's and the joy's of having them around

This is a photo of my pullet's I took this evening and tomorrow
they will be 11 weeks old and all EE's ..........

I have 16 in that hatch and hoping really to be getting 10 pullets
as I really have am hopping all 16 are pullets but being reasonable
hoping for 10 pullets at least
