Easter Egger chickens are a unique blend of traditional American Easter Eggers and the European Grnleger variety. The American Easter Eggers typically feature a pea comb, beard, and green legs, while the European Grnleger variety has yellow legs, a single comb, and often a tuft on its head. Grnlegers are a hybrid cross between the commercial Legbar and brown egg-laying hens, meaning they do not breed true like American Easter Eggers. As a result, only a portion of Grnleger offspring will lay colored eggs. Easter Eggers are known for their ability to produce a variety of colored eggs, with hues ranging from blue and green to pink or lavender. However, it's important to note that about 15% of Easter Eggers may lay brown or cream-colored eggs instead. Whether you're looking to add vibrant colors to your egg basket or simply enjoy the variety in your flock, Easter Eggers are a great choice for backyard chicken keepers. Guarantee of 90% accuracy on all sexed poultry.
