Thank you for putting their 'chick' photo next to your clips... it's so cool to see how much they have changed.

[@tammymckenna1899]

You have some very pretty Easter Eggers. I love all their names and how friendly they are with you. 😊

[@Lionforaday]

I love that they all have names and that you can recognize them!

[@OakAbode]

😁 Of course! They’re all personality plus!

[@sherreeroper7656]

I just got 4 Easter eggers.. so darn cute! Well, all babies are cute Lil fuzzballs.

[@markderksen7452]

I must say you are certainly an animal lover, it's nice to see someone take a passion for them! You sure know how to handle them, that's for sure!

[@wendiepietarila1038]

I hope they all are doing well. They are beautiful!

[@jimcoutsos2270]

Always enjoy listening to the detail you offer. Hope all is well for you and your family. You guys are my kinda people and I’m forever thankful to the education you share. God Bless you all.

[@furiousfucshiagoddess7616]

We have 3 easter egger chicks, approximately 6 or 7 weeks old, and they are sooooooo cute!! They are the friendliest little chicks. They all hop on me whenever they get the chance lol. My BCMs on the other hand (black copper marans) are much more stand offish.

[@organixgirl]

My easter egger does the same lol she jumps on my back when I go to put food in and she rides my back around lol very calm and friendly I also ended up with a rooster EE he's going to be beautiful so far his temperament is also calm and let's me hold at 10 weeks

[@jacquedenney5846]

Maggie and Marshmallow are adorbs! 😍

[@cindypope4238]

My two Easter Eggers are the most active and friendly of my 4 chicks.

[@haejikim6782]

You know how to grow up EE with love !!!

[@gamingmimi2]

I love your Easter Egger chicken videos. We just got a dozen chicks with 4 Easter Eggers. They are adorable. Most of our flock are light colors. Were any of your Easter Egger mostly yellow at about 2 days old?

[@Watchdog2023]

I just went to Orschelns and picked up 9 of these….they seem to be pretty interesting so far...

[@CincinnatiPiper]

Love the hat. LOVE. IT.

[@pattikemp-gettmann9646]

I can't wait to get my chicks this spring. I had to rehome my previous chickens. I had too many for the new town.

[@debeerah1710]

Very usefull with the small pictures of Them as babies at left thank you! Mine is like your one Calle Mushroom but dont know if its hen or rooster yet 😅

[@eithanlong1355]

You are so cute in the beginning! I love watching you and the ladies.

[@Farmer_per_Passione]

hello, congratulations beautiful specimens !!! I would like to ask you how do you get the Easter Eggers? Ameraucana with what?

[@AlexJones-vq5dm]

Cute

[@angelaturner4751]

I’m dying to know if my Easter eggers are hens or roosters! We can’t have roosters either. Seeing your pictures is making me hopeful lol!!

[@duboislegacyfarm]

I’m here for the exact same reason. 😂

[@despicabledavidshort3806]

​@@duboislegacyfarmme too

[@lynndellcox7078]

Good video

[@estherloveschickens9075]

Thanks

[@OakAbode]

Hope it helps!

[@TheMosinCrate]

Thanks for the video, I cannot believe after just 3 weeks they are that big.. Nuts. We are getting a few ourselves and will have to give away some(minimum online order of 15) which is going to suck because I can tell we'll grow attached to them as it seems you have. Good videos, hope your channel does well.

[@OakAbode]

Hey thank you! And congratulations on your new babies!! That was totally our plan as well - we planned on keeping 3 or 4, but ended up keeping 9 because you’re totally right, I got way too attached. 😅 Keep me posted on your flock, it’s going to be a blast!

[@sv160]

Thanks for the awesome video I just got two Easter egger baby chicks. Yeah. But 7 days before When I got there, she only had two left and one would probably not make is 😢. I took them, sadly the same day it past. Now we have Heidi. She looks like baby cookie, and now we got her 7 days and yesterday we went to tractor supplies to get her companions and the same, they would only sell 4 and up. But I only have a henhouse for 2-3 chickens. So what now. I simply ask the family who just bought 6 if they willing to take two as a present and yeah they did, so now we have a Little flock of 3. So glad Heidi is not alone anymore Olga and Yule all are eating drinking beautifully peeping love the sound. My chicken run is 6 feet to 8 but my fenced in backyard is 50 by 70. I had 7 years ago 1 Orpington buff and 2 Easter egger. ❤❤❤ so much fun and love the green/blue ish eggs.

[@maciebiermann9526]

My chipmunk chicks are welbars didn’t know they could be Easter eggers too

[@Flyonyourwall]

I just got 4 new babies today. How long should I hold them for a day so they used to me?

[@katiebarrett1829]

We have number three

[@admirakucevic]

I have 2 easter eggers and they are both so skidish.

[@IAMGiftbearer]

They look like they have eyeliner on! What was the breeding that made them?

[@JohnMartin-vl4vc]

The condition is referred to as scissor beak.

[@joshalynnwardful]

How many chickens do you have total now?

[@TigiLova]

wait for your update

[@OakAbode]

Hey thank you! Just posted an updated video with all the chicken colors at 6 months old, hope it helps!

[@Brandi_the_Baker]

How many chickens do you have now!

[@TigiLova]

i like to watch your video so much

[@samuraioodon]

Hi did ‘lady’ become a rooster?

[@Bioluvskatz]

So help me out here. I don’t have chickens yet. Hopefully within 2yrs (retirement). We are NOT ALLOWED to have roosters either. I am predominantly vegetarian. My girls will be strictly layers. Wtheck am I to do if I end up with a rooster??? If I raise that thing for months I CANNOT hand it over to someone to get slaughtered. I would die. Please help me. How do you handle that??

[@bilqisfatima3143]

What means by Chipmunk chic???

[@Protonoto1]

good video, music is a little too loud.

[@lindseys9766]

Your chickens seam calm did you handle them a lot or very little?

[@OakAbode]

A lot! I used to soak their crumble in water for a couple hours and feed it to them as treats when they were little babies. They went crazy for it!

[@lindseys9766]

Thanks!!!

[@paigechojnacki2364]

What do you mean by chipmunk chick? Just the fact that they had a stripe?

[@OakAbode]

Just the coloring, yup ;)

[@VanityVixen]

I think my chicks look like these.. maybe you can help me identify the breed?

[@walkbyfaithfamily9177]

Just watching this today 3/19/20. I’m just curious if any of your chicks turned out to be roosters?? I have two EE chicks now (1 week). And one is noticeably different than the other.... I will be so sad if it’s a roo- can’t have them in town.

[@OakAbode]

We did not have any roos! They really can vary in appearance, since they’re all little mutts. It’s near-impossible to spot an EE too at 1 week, so I’d try not to worry! Reptar was always much bigger than the rest and she did turn out to be a hen ☺️

[@walkbyfaithfamily9177]

Oak Abode - thank you for responding! I am crossing my fingers! One has feathered out nice like the Orpington and Barred Rock, but the other has no tail yet, is bigger than he others, stands taller, is much fluffier, and has a wider comb. 🤷‍♀️. I was encouraged by your video though- they all turned out so different and some of yours even look a little like roosters. I guess I just have to wait. 😊

[@OakAbode]

@@walkbyfaithfamily9177 Oh man, it's that suspense waiting to find out that's killer, isn't it! So far I've been lucky and had 14/14 hens, but I just got 5 more chicks this year so I'm crossing my fingers for the next few months too!

[@walkbyfaithfamily9177]

Oak Abode - yes!! I keep thinking I better go get one more baby EE before these chicks are too big to add another to the flock..... just in case. 😆. I really want some colored eggs! My husband says “No!” He thinks I’m crazy already. 🤣

[@walkbyfaithfamily9177]

Oak Abode - I am really glad we have them while we are stuck at home... they provide lots of entertainment for me and my girls! 😆

[@charlenesbackyardchickens6083]

Why do I hear flapping noises in the background?

[@yesgetit366]

Oh my God I just subscribed today (April 6th 2019) but August 2nd (day this video was posted in 2018) is my birthday

[@OakAbode]

No way! Well happy birthday way late! 😉

[@DerafsheKavian]

Hi there, which hatchery are these from?

[@OakAbode]

I ordered these from Tractor Supply, which I believe gets their chicks from Hoover's Hatchery.

[@THNKKY]

That autofocus is loud! Nice birds tho!

[@Adksnate]

Is someone typing in the background or is that the chicks?!!

[@jumpmanphlight6410]

Mable is a rooster as well lol

[@nathencheshire]

2nd one looks like a roo. I haven't had very good luck getting hens with this breed. I guess they're very hard to sex as new born chicks. I've bought chicks twice and ended up with a roo both times. I have bought 4 chicks and its a 1/1 ratio of pullets and roo's.

[@OakAbode]

Bummer, I'm sorry! Originally I thought she was a roo too. As it turns out, I totally lucked out with 12/12 females from Tractor Supply. I've definitely heard this "breed" can be harder to sex than many, though!

[@sleeptighttonight8140]

I need a women like you. Love chickens and great looking. LOL

[@pollogmoody5746]

What’s a chipmunk chick?

[@bilqisfatima3143]

I love all your girls I have 3 easter beggars Zeba, Rani and Brownie.I love my ladies to death!!!

[@jumpmanphlight6410]

Alot of them look like roosters towards the end 🤔

[@oliviamoss5723]

I just got some for my daughters and trying to figure out the sex

[@jadevans320]

If they have round saddle feathers, they’re a girl. If they have pointy theyre a boy

[@edwardbright5894]

Difficult to focus on those Easter Egger Chicks. With that Chick wearing the tank top.🤠👍🌹🇺🇸

[@Brandi_the_Baker]

Jesus dude! Get a life.

[@MazeOfClover]

Nothing says “I’m a virgin” like getting that excited over a tank top.

[@katiebarrett1829]

Number 7 is a male

[@sebastianray3422]

Those are Easter Eggers they look like quail
