easter egger

I have this beautiful, metallic lavender olive egger Roo, that I hatched from an egg and is now five months old. I don’t know what to breed him with. I have read there are certain things you’re not supposed to breed because of the recessive gene. I have lavender Orphington’s, and light Brahmas...

Any idea what breed she is? She was said to be a Black Star but the other two I got her with look alike and she looks much different. She’s got some EE traits but the black coloring and bluish iridescent feathers like the other two; however, she has bluish legs and they have yellow. She also has...

This is Chives, an Easter Egger. She is 17 weeks old now. I purchased her from Rural King at 5 days old. They told me the hatchery sexes them and has an 85-90% accuracy rate. I do not know the hatchery they use. I am in central Tennessee, about an hour and a half west of Nashville. When I...

Hi! This is my first post after following the site for a while 😁 we have a new flock of backyard chickens and all is well. We most recently got five Easter Egger chicks and I’m highly suspicious that “Husky” is a rooster. He/she is five weeks old today and has a very pronounced comb to my novice...

I have an Easter Egger hen who had an impacted crop for somewhere between a few days to up to a week. It took about 3 days to correct once I discovered it but it might have been a few days before I noticed. She’s still thinner than my other Americana but not super thin. I don’t believe she has...

I ordered a bantam assortment of all feather legged from Ideal Poultry awhile back. I also added four EE bantams to the order so therefore technically the ONLY clean legged birds I should’ve received aside from extras would be the EEs. I received all my feather legged birds and three confirmed...

Hi there, I am posting once more in hopes that someone has room for our Easter Egger rooster. He came from a group of chicks I got in April that were all supposed to be hens but you know how that goes! Willing to deliver him to your doorstep outside the city. I would not consider him...

Bought this “sexed” Easter Egger but she started crowing. Is she actually a he or is she just crowing because she’s confused and there isn’t rooster?

Jalapeño is a lovely bird, but he found his voice and I can’t have a rooster in my area. I hatched him in April, he’s really pretty with shiny blue grey feathers. I wish I could keep him.

Hi All, I have three Easter eggers for sale. $15 each. About 10 weeks old. Vaccinated. Let me know if you’re interested :) These are the last of a batch of 12 chickens that I’m selling this summer and I’m ready to be done haha - so make me an offer. 🤷🏼‍♀️

Hello, I am looking for a home around NC for an easter egger pullet named Honey and a Blue Sapphire Gem cockerel named Bluey. Both are raised to be friendly with people and originally day olds I got from tractor supply. The reason I can not keep them is because I’m a student going back to...

I’m a newer chicken mama & this is my first ever flock. Today one of my chickens had their very first egg & I’m obsessed! I have all Easter Eggers & they are 23 weeks old! It’s a beautiful little blue egg! I’m so proud! I was able to figure out who laid it by checking their pelvic bone located...

Straight run (I believe that's the right term) from a local whose flock consisted of ameraucanas, brown leghorn, and road island reds, along with a few other breeds. -- Pay no mind to the silkie mom who has done a great job raising them. Although one does have feathered legs like a silkie...

I have seventeen 2 wk old Easter Egger chicks I'm raising indoors. They all appeared normal at 1 day old. I've noticed one of them is only HALF the size of the others so I singled her out today & inspected her closely. I was shocked & dismayed to see she was already developing scissor beak. I've...

When TSC was having their Chick Days, we purchases what we thought were 2 RIR's and 2 barred rocks (all supposed to be pullets). We have been excitedly awaiting our first egg (they turned 18 weeks yesterday) and it was one of our 'Rhode islands' except she laid a blue/green egg so I guess she's...

I’m in NE Texas and just built (put together) my first coop and had a guy come over and build a 10 x 16 run around the coop because in our city to have chickens they have to be totally enclosed. The coop said for 10-15 chickens, but that could only be correct just for roosting! I bought 8 chicks...

looking to rehome my rooster, I have too many. I live in central florida i am willing to deliver within a certain mile radius, just ask! He is strong, healthy, & parasite free.

Not sure if this is an ear infection on my Easter Egger or a pecking wound. She’s typically the dominant hen and not too many mess with her. I picked the scab and no puss, just pale pink flesh crater (if that makes sense) * I wish I took pictures after I removed it 🤦🏼‍♀️ Any ideas? Treatment...

Just placed an order at Ideal Poultry, I’ve ordered once from them before but it was YEARS ago maybe in 2014. My orders due to ship 08/09 so I’m excited to hear from people about their experiences with Ideal nowadays! My first ever order from them I ordered 8 assorted bantams and received 20...

I have this gorgeous Bantam Easter Egger I got from a Bantam Assortment from Cackle Hatchery. I’ve posted about her before asking for help figuring out her coloring and genetics, and from what I got as answers she looks like a splash. Now I know Easter Eggers are most of the time made from...
