These are 12 week old and I am hoping they are pullets. They are supposed to be Easter Eggers and Olive Eggers? Does that sound right?

All pullets!

They could be Olive and Easter Eggers. They come in various color patters and looks. I'm a little surprised to see all straight combs in the bunch. Usually there's a pea comb, muffs & beard, or Crested. Perhaps they're Whiting True Blues and Greens.

The black and white barred one looks like a pure bred Plymouth Barred Rock with those yellow legs and single comb. I've seen barred Olive Eggers but they usually have feathered feet or a crest.

Where did you get them from?

Black bird has a tiny pea/rose comb.
I agree, they're likely some kind of Eggers.

Yeah, I just looked again and that looks more like a rose comb to me. The blue egg layers that are usually used to make Easter and Olive Eggers either have pea (Ameraucana & Araucana) or straight (Crested Cream Legbar).

I'm curious what mixes were used in this batch.
