Just wanted to stop by this thread and Introduce myself...My chicken dealer sold me an EE by accident....and OH what a happy accident for me!!!!!! I love my one and only EE(Lucy) I think she's (was) part of her olive egg project, but she let this one go!!!! Still not sure what color eggs she lays....I love me some of this LUCY

And Lucy with her hatch mates...I call this trio "The Chickens of Eastwick" they are tight as glue.

Now I must look through the whole thread to check out pics!!!!
Glad to See Everybody!!

I refer to these 3 EE pullets as "Larry, Curly, and Mo". Part of a brood of 23. These 3 are inseparable - as you can see.

This is my Diva. She has green legs and pea comb but no beard or muffs. Today I noticed she has white ears!!! White. Does this mean she will lay white eggs?

I am really not that experienced but I thought it was the pea comb that had more to do with the egg color in EEs. I guess we'll find out eventually!

What is her genetic background?

From what I have read, ear color has nothing to do with egg color.

Ear color DOES have to do with egg color, but not in all cases. She might just lay lighter eggs, but the more likely case is that she's just not mature yet.


Leg color has nothing to do with egg color.


Her pea comb will give a good gaurantee of good egg color.

Wouldn't that be something? Expecting my Shamo to lay blue eggs. . . . Now that's a unique chicken!
