What is our new little friend???

[Shoonell]

We were recently given two 1 1/2 yr. old hens. We know that the one is a barred rock but not sure about the other. A friend thought that she might be an Americauna. She lays light brown eggs, not the blue-green though. Is she just a mixed up chick?? Thanks to anyone who might shed some light on this matter.

Looks like an EE (Easter Egger). They lay colored eggs. She is very beautiful!

I wouldn't mind having one that looked like her...

Lucky you

She is an EE very pretty too. Some will lay brown eggs instead of green/blue eggs.

I get brown eggs from my EE.
Love those fluffy cheeks!

Great thanks to all who answered. I was hoping for blue eggs but I guess brown eggs are better than no eggs!!

She is pretty but likes to pick on our poor banty girls

Don't worry, most EEs lay blue, just a few exceptions. Get some more and be a happy hen!

That is a EE. A nice one at that.

I have an EE who lays light brown eggs and some that lay green. She sure looks like one and she's very pretty.
