Easter Eggers are friendly, docile birds that are well-suited for backyard flocks and first-time chicken owners. They are medium-sized with a diverse range of appearances, as their plumage can vary widely in color and pattern due to their mixed lineage. In addition to their colorful eggs, Easter Eggers are also valued for their hardiness, adaptability, and decent egg production, with hens typically laying around 200-280 eggs per year.
