I'm a little over half-way through my first hatch. I am cautiously optimistic! My daughter (10) is quite excited. She has day 21 marked on her calendar in her room.
My roo is at the very least an EE. I was told by the lady from whom I bought him that he was Ameraucana. He has ear muffs and slate legs. This is him coming out of a molt. (If you google images for "Ameraucana rooster", you will see several images that look like my guy)

I retrieved eggs from two of my store-bought easter-eggers that he has taken a liking to. One lays green eggs, and has ear muffs, slate legs, and a beautiful beard. The other lays light brown eggs, and has no discernible EE features except for the slate legs.
What are my odds that I'll get tinted (green) egg-layers out of my green eggs? Alternatively, what are my odds from the light brown eggs? Any science to it? Or is it pot luck with the EEs? LOL!! (My luck, I'll get roos out of all of my green eggs
)
Secondary question; I will be getting rid of any roos that hatch - Given the info above, how would you classify them when describing them in an ad? Easter eggers?
Thanks!!
