My roo Pretty Boy is an EE. The grey girls are actually blue and they are also EE hens from another rooster I had. Their momma I think was a leghorn. I will have to see if I cannot find a picture of their daddy. Anyway the daddy, his name was Robin.. Gorgeous fella. One of my blue girls though is a giant blue orp in that pic.

Yeah that buff hen was sassing at everyone. I think she was about to lay.and was giving the warning out! One of the buffs is bald so tht might be Pretty Boys fav!

I do not know what Pretty Boys parents are. He came to me in a load of chicks that just said they were EE's! I think he is somethign like a golden duck wing cross of some description by the color. I am hoping to get some pretty blue chicks out of him out the lot of blue hens there, but do not know how soon. I have not fired up the incubator and right now things are tight.

I will try to get a better pic of Pretty Boy. He is getting his tail feathers back and starting to look pretty handsome!

Here is an old shot of some passed birds. Robin is that big guy in the middle.. I had a great assortment that year!
