I don’t think they would all lay different colors? If bred to the same hen. Maybe different shades though.I agree, plus If you ever decide to hatch your own eggs they all might lay a colored eggs!!!
Mandela effectMating with an EE rooster was like a box o' chocolates, ya ne'er know whatcha gonna get.
I love my EE and crossbred birds, and the EE hens I've had are happy to brood. When grown, these hens lay medium to large eggs (color depends on their ancestors), and the cockerels mature at about six or seven months, being large enough to process for a dinner table set for four with leftovers.
They look like din
This EE cockerel seems aggressive to the EE pullet and her only. Not often, but he will pounce on her sometimes and nip at her neck. He also seems protective of her, too. I can’t figure him out. But aggression towards the girls are a big deal breaker, but I’m wondering if this is a young cockerel thing.My EE rooster is super protective of his hens. I’ve taken to carrying a shovel around. He hasn’t attacked me but he does show aggression. On the other hand, he is a very attentive fellow to his hens. My barred rock rooster follows me around like a dog and has never showed the slightest aggression BUT he is low man on the totem pole. The EE is top dog for sure.
I’m new to EEs, I’m excited to see how they are when they’re older.Mating with an EE rooster is like a box o' chocolates, ya ne'er know whatcha gonna get.

Are you sure he isn’t trying to mate her? He could be confused on doing that or something.This EE cockerel seems aggressive to the EE pullet and her only.
