Ironically, I've owned barred rock, novagen and Easter Eggers, and the Easter Eggers have been the only ones to turn broody. On the other hand, I haven't lost any to predators. I've lost most of my barred rocks and some of my novagens. Yet somehow, the Easter Eggers are still going strong. Stay safe everyone!

I love Easter Eggers. I always have one or two. Right now I have three. And they all happen to lay green eggs. You just never know though, but they are very friendly, very easy to deal with, don't cause any problems. And I have never had one even think about going Rudy. I like the fact that they come in all different colors also. I like variety in my chickens and my eggs, so Easter Eggers are a good way to get that.

My Easter Eggers are probably my favorite birds! The coloration (and variation!) is amazing!

I love Ameraucanas and Easter Eggers! Just a note, the marketing department at some hatcheries call Easter Eggers Americanas (notice the tricky spelling difference). True Ameraucanas are a recognized breed while, as you mentioned, Easter Eggers are not, but rather a hybrid. They are both very cute, sweet birds as well as decent layers.

I have several of them, i love their temperments.

I Love them! They are beautiful and so sweet!

I got 5 Easter Eggers four years ago, just lost my last two. They were good layers, and all would race to where we were splitting wood in hopes of finding grubs and so forth.

Thank you for your information

My favorite easter egger is dealing with impacted crop atm, which I have been fighting to get cleared. This chicken and my other favorite (my pullet born march 8th-9th this year) just have the best personalities, are gentle and don't try to take my fingers with the treats, and then just adore me to death. Love perching on me and getting scritches for days. I really hope she pulls through. My other 2 easter eggers, one is an elusive brat and another one has some sort of calcium issues where her bones are extra big, her nails extra extra long, and paper thing eggshells on jumbo sized eggs. Either way, first two I am not throwing in the soup pot as they have reached a more pet status with me. May have been born and raised on farm life, doesn't mean I actually have the heart to do it myself, so chances are the rest will die from natural causes too.

I have 14 Easter Eggers and O love them all!

My Easter Eggers are independent. If they are picked on it doesn't seem to bother them much, like some of my other gentle hens. Love them!

When i was buying chicks i knew i wanted easter eggers, sweet and lays colorful eggs, what more could you want? My 2 have not disappointed. Rosemary is by far my friendliest bird and will regularly hop into my lap. Parsley is not quite as affectionate, but she is still a curious bird who has an adorable poof of feathers on her head xD

People used to color eggs for Easter. So colored eggs look like Easter eggs

I love these videos! Keep them coming. We have a 6 week old Easter Egger. Can't wait to see her eggs. Would love to see videos on the growth development of males vs females. We have a Barred Rock that could be either one right now. We wanted a rooster, but hard to tell if he's a hen.

My easter egger is high strung and nervous. I raised her with an Australorp, and she was always hiding under it. Now she is the most high strung one in the flock and hard to handle. She only picks on the bantam that is at the bottom of the pecking order, as she is the second to the bottom.

Lap Time! Mine were chosen so I would have a female emotional support hen. Pretty sure at 4 weeks we have them sorted, but I won't second guess for a few more weeks. I want a hen who is friendly and enjoys being petted and riding in a stroller. We are rural and they have outside foraging/dusting time daily. The local kids come to hold them, the more, the merrier. It's not a big deal here; and there have been inquiries about acquiring a single "house trained" hen. There isn't anyone over 60 here who doesn't remember having them as kids, and they're making a new resurgence. A lot of young families buying small flocks. Heck yes!!! If each family has three hens we bring down the egg industry as we know it! Compared to parrots, chickens are $6, not $6,000....and they provide an egg every couple days. They can learn to do tricks as well.

My first chickens were easter egger-silkie crosses, wonderful birds with beautiful eggs but unfortunately got the broodiness of their silkie parents.

Like your videos

I love in Louisiana and we have days in the summer that reach 98-103 degrees. Is this bird heat tolerant?

can you tell us more about the calanca and quechua chickens? I can't find anything about them!

OK, I did learn a couple of new things and I kind of skimmed through the video but I have an Easter egg, chicken and rooster that have green legs and since a regular chicken in my Easter egg have been booting together and now have chicks in the yard do not have green legs, but are very blonde Like the Easter eggErs I have I wanted to know if their legs would be green from birth or is it something they grow into?

I have an one!!!!

I have one Easter Egger in my flock. I bought 3 in February and two were suffocated by the others in the brooder. So I bought three more and two more were suffocated and the last one those three was an interesting character! He would get knocked down by the older chicks (whole different story that I will never repeat) but she would play opossum and just lay there. I would pick her up because she would look dead. Well one day she must have knocked down and fell in the water and drown! She was plenty old enough to have not fell in the water! So I only have one left! But the good news is she is a sweetheart. At 5 weeks old she started flying up into my hand. I started giving her house flies and she knew I had her a snack! She is now 7 weeks old and let's me pet her. I have two Golden Comets who are grow that fly up on my forearm for snacks, so start early training if you want cool pet chickens!

Do they get along with Buff Orpingtons

are they the same ones as green queen? To me they look alike so are they the same?

Do y sale them?

The Doodle of the Chicken world!

I bought 5 easter eggers last spring . not one of them lays blue or green eggs all brown. I'm not happy

What’s a kalanka and Quattros?? I wish you would have spelled it on screen

I thought an Easter Egger was the result of crossing a blue-egg-laying breed with another breed, usually a brown-egg layer

1:16 mark in video. This is the Anti American flag. The stripe colors are reversed. The real American flag has a white stripe under the blue.

Life of a chicken

You did not mention life expectancy, which is the only thing I came here for!

Excuse in the Netherlands the Nederlands Chicken breed Blue Eggs

Excuse me but could be the same chicken breeds Diffent Colour Eggs

Can Easter Eggers breed the same Easter Eggers?

I would pronounce those words as "oh-oh-sigh-ANN" and "oh-oh-sigh-ANN-in".

Easter egg reference is video games? 😂

What’s the difference between The ameraucana Easter egger Olive egger True blue whiting True green whiting ???????????

Every thing you need to know to own a chicken 😅😅😅

And boy do they love to fly 😐

Great info but PLEASE KEEP MUSIC OUT OF THESE DEMO VIDEOS. IT IS TOO MUCH FOR THE EARS TO HAVE TWO LAYERS OF SOUND - VOICE AND MUSIC, BOTH CONTINUOUS. Try listening to a series of your own videos on the receiving end of this onslaught of noise. It will stress you out. I prefer the soothing voice + natural sounds only. NO MUSIC!!!

Ugh! So much information, but this guys sarcastic sounding speech is so annoying. I just can’t finish the video.

The CORRECT pronunciation of COCCYX is: ‘cock-six’ NOT… “cock icks”. And OOCYAN is pronounced:’ooh-sigh-ann’ (ooh= same as the U in Uber) Also, SALMON FAVEROLLE… the A in Faverolle is pronounced the same as the A in fabulous.
