I have 2 EE pullets, trying to figure out what they will look like when full grown/all feathered out. Currently about 4 weeks+. In particular the gray one has some pretty red/brown tones in her wings and neck, trying to see how that will look. I love seeing how they all grow and change! :)

You never know what Easter eggers will look they are a random hybrid between a chicken with blue and brown laying genetics.
The cross does not involve 2 specific breeds the hatchery just throws a rooster with blue egg genetics like a purebred Amerucana in a pen with a random assortment of brown laying hens like rhode island red, barred rock, delaware etc..

I know they aren't a true breed, I was just wondering if coloring was somewhat predictable, in that if your chick looks like X now they will grow up to look like Y. If there are any patterns or something that tend to hold true.

Hatcheries usually breed Easter egger to Easter egger rather than ameraucana to another breed.

They’ll likely keep their colors and most of their pattern.
