Easter Egger bantams, dainty little green-egg-laying powerhouses, are one of our faves. Here's why: They tend to do super well in the heat because of their dainty size, They also do just fine in the cold due to their small pea comb Easter Eggers can be any color at all, and we just love the variety: from pure white, to silver penciled-looking, to buff, gray, blue, brown and black. They're easily tameable and can be a super sweet pet. They're super duper layers! While bantam eggs are smaller than normal, our Easter Egger bantams can easily churn out 5-6 eggs a week. Other known (misleading) aliases of this same breed: Ameraucanas, Americanas, or sometimes Araucanas; We are one of only a few places that provide true Ameraucanas.Please note that while Easter Eggers chiefly lay blue or green eggs, they may (rarely) lay any egg color, including tinted, white, brown or even pinkish eggs. Each hen will give only one egg color her whole life, though—it won't change from one day to the next. Blue or Green Egg Promise Most Easter and Olive Eggers will lay blue or green eggs. However, due to natural genetic variation, a small number may produce eggs that are brown, pinkish, or tinted instead. Since each hen lays one consistent egg color for life, egg color becomes clear once she begins laying — typically between 18 and 30 weeks. If your Easter Egger or Olive Egger lays eggs that are not blue or green, we will refund the purchase price of the bird as My Pet Chicken store credit. Read more information here.
