kathyschix Posted August 10, 2009 Share Posted August 10, 2009 ...to lay an egg! She lost her title of "slacker" chicken today. It's definitely pastel but I can't decide if I think it's light blue or light green? Olive's egg: The line up (L to R: Olive, Ruby, Lily): Thanks for looking!

kathyschix Posted August 11, 2009 Author Share Posted August 11, 2009 That's OK, I probably should have explained further (and I'm no expert!). An "Easter Egger" (EE) is often a slang term for a mixed breed Ameraucana or Araucana chicken. "Perhaps 99 percent of chickens sold as Araucanas (or Ameraucanas) by commercial hatcheries are actually mongrels (aka Easter Egg chickens), meeting the requirements of neither breed." Ameraucanas I hope that helps! Kathy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
