Easter Eggers are not a standardised and recognised chicken breed, but they are mixed crossbred X chickens created in barnyards by hobby farmers all around the world.

They carry the gene of the blue and green egg shell. This means that breed like rumpless araucanas, crested british araucanas, americaunas and cream legbars are taking part in their creation.

Their name deriver from the similarity of their shell colors to the eggs we dye during the period of the Easter, dedicated to Ishtar Goddess.
