wow, out of 12 3 week old chicks, my 3 EE's are the biggest, prettiest and craziest. I'm really impressed with these birds so far. They are my first 3 EE's, and after hearing about how they are not pure Ameraucanas but mutts, why would I care? lol
Their beautiful feathering and size are incredible!
I love all the different varites you all have posted.
Here's one of mine , bred here.

Im thinking on getting a Leghorn male to use for my girls, since Leghorns are known for their ability to lay eggs hopefully they pass on those generics to my EE's.

Here is a picture of his half brother Red doing the same thing last winter:
