i'm terrified that all of my EEs are going to be roosters... the problem is that there are at least 2, and possibly more, of them that are just "too special" not to keep. the light colored one is my fav out of all 22 chicks. it's adorable and has a great personality. but one of the chipmunk ones is HUGE (we've been calling it Chickzilla)! so if they are both roosters.... i guess i'll be breeding a lot of EEs/Olive Eggers!

my one EE chcik that seemed more "cool toned" than the others.. more grayinsh coloring than the warm golds and browns of the others, he ended up like this

all my others are the various colors of browns.. one has a bit more red than the other girls, but i didn't take very many pics when they were little, so to try to explain how she looked different is kinda hard...

I had two EE that were yellow as chicks. One turned out to be buff, and the other is solid white.

The buff is third from left, and the white is third from right. The two on the far right are my other EE's that were 'chipmunk' chicks.

lol.. nope.. he's a feed store bird... and i can't remeber the name of the place but it's in new mexico i think, that they get their birds from.. definatlye wasn't ideal.. the name was much more complicated than that.. lol..

but i think he's an awsome looking roo... if i decide to buy any more day olds, i will try to get more that were this same coloring... i really want a lavender or buff one... i'm still anxious to see what his babies with my leghorn will look like.. lol..
