So I posted a few months back about my EE chicks. 5 of the 8 that hatched made it and they are now 14 weeks old. I have put them out in the run today to acclimate to the flock. They’re separated from the rest of the flock for at least a week. I ended up with 3 Cockrills and 2 Pullets. I’m going to keep the most colorful Roo but need to rehome the other 2 (anyone in VA and need/want a roo????) the hens are Chickie and TRex (my 5 year old named them). The other 2 Cockrills are Spooky (born on Halloween) and Patches. I’m pretty sure my GLW Roo is the daddy for TRex, Patches and Spooky and I think my BLRW is the Daddy for Lucky and Chickie based off of coloring.

Coincidentally I saw an old Frankie Nunez movie on Netflix last week and there was a white Easter Egger chicken in it!!! More and more chickens are being shown in rural movie scenes but unfortunately it's always associated with them being scared and dispersing in panic -- as if that's all chickens are good for -- ugh!!! There is so much more to chickens then scaring and scattering them!!! Love your girls and of course especially your white EE -- what color are her eggshells?

My all white EE has blue eggshells. They’re so neat!

Anyone notice if their blue eggs oxidize to a greenish tint after being collected from the nestbox? My Blue Wheaten Ameraucana (my avatar photo) used to lay pretty sky blue eggs but after sitting in my egg skelter a few hours the blue turned to greenish-blue. Talked with other Amer and EE owners who have coincidentally noticed their blue eggs oxidizing. Immediate refrigeration made no difference in preserving the original pure blue either.

I can't say I have noticed that.
