Are those pics recent?
I know the Sappire Gem cockerels/rooster get barring, and I do see some barring in yours.
I would tell you to wait 2 weeks, then post again.
I had a Sappire that seemed to have gotten barring at a young age but SHE grew out of it.
I also think the cockerels are supposed...
I had a friend that a beardless EE hen, and she laid sky blue eggs.
But, EE's are essentially mutts, so if they have a beard or not, their egg color is always up in the air.
I have an EE that lays brown.
Really? Do you by chance have a picture?
Thanks, I hope so too. We bought the wood last week, hopefully we'll put it together next week when he's off again.
