What will my EE grow up to look like?

[Beckychick11]

Hello everyone! I got two Easter eggers today and I'm curious what your chicks looked like and what they looked like full grown! They are such an interesting breed with his they change. Thank you! The other one scooted out of the picture.

They all can be different, that's part of their appear. I think you are just going to need to wait and see how they color out.

Yes you're right. I was just curious to see the variations and changes they make!

It's actually very, very hard to tell exactly what any given EE chick will look like after reaching adulthood as down color has no bearing on plumage color. Which makes things even more fun! Your babies are simply adorableness. I've had quite a few Easter Eggers, but here are some of my favorites!

Rather than post what I have, think I'll just give you a link to my Easter Egger article. Shows my first EE chicks, then as they first started feathering, then as adults. Well, all 5 except Pearly-girl and DumbDaphnetheFlockComplainer. I couldn't tell them apart as chicks but they looked totally different from each other as adults. They were my only two smooth faced EEs. Yours are doggone cute, that's for sure!

Thank you!!! I'm especially fond of my beardless EEs.
Certainly, I never would've guessed they'd end up looking like that!
You're more than welcome.
