I have no clue what they are. They are extremely skittish and have not laid any egs. I got them in sept and were told they were laying and between 6-9 months old
I agree with Bantamlover21's guesses. No, not all EE's are skittish, my are pretty tame. I'm guessing that it has something to do with how they were raised, and whether or not they were handled as chicks.
I have no clue, i got them with the other one and a black one they all came together as part of a flock.the black one and rust one are coming around now but i still cant hold them like i can with my original 6. They are not skittish like the grey ones- those i cant even walk near lol. They will comerunning to me when i walk to the coop area but thats about it lol
Yes, they are Easter Eggers. I've raised them for years (still have some in my flock) and they are generally docile birds with varying personalities. Some of them them are quite friendly, while others are very standoffish. For the most part, mine have tolerated handling but don't really like to be handled.
Out of all my breeds of chickens, my Easter Eggers were the last breed to finally trust me enough to eat meal worms out of my hand. Mine are still pretty skittish, but they have flying skills that my others could only dream of.
The woman i bought them from said they were laying but i haven't seen any eggs and i got them in sept. Yeah they can fly way better then the other ones
