🥚 Easter Egger
Chickens · breed reference
NOT A BREED — any bird carrying a blue-egg gene, usually Ameraucana crossed onto a brown layer. One hen lays ONE colour for life (blue, green, olive, pink or cream); the rainbow comes from keeping several. Sold as 'Americana' and 'Araucana' constantly; it is neither.
