So it looks like my EE's are really OE's. So here are some pictures of them along with the eggs from the ones laying so far.

Sweet little Mina.

Grimm on the left and Morgana on the right.
And Jules Vern our little rooster. We have two more OE girls in a different coop.
The darkest one is from today! Not sure who laid that egg but I was very excited to find it.

Are you asking for pictures at each of these ages??? Only a rare few take pictures at regular intervals. Would it help to post a pic of your bird?

thank you, and I don't have one, my friend does, and they were wondering how big they should be and if they are good quality, but they aren't very friendly and they have ATON of chickens, and it's hard for them to get pics. And they don't have to be at those ages, just a few maybe of them growing up.

Quote: Since you are asking about OE . . . . . quality is in the health of the hens and flock, and the color of their eggs, and good laying type. THis is not a bird with an SOP to meet. So all our birds will look different. Mine vary alot depending on who the parents are. I breed for maintaining genetic diversity.

Perhaps you can start at post one and look for pictures with ages posted.

Those are some beautiful eggs! I like all three shades of green~

My OE girls just started laying a couple of weeks ago. I am thrilled with the egg color. Since I don't have a OE roo, I put my two blue OE girls in with my Double Laced Blue Barnie roo. I am hoping for awesome egg color and cool lacing. Time will tell.
