What is a Easter chicken?

Answer 1

A chicken egg is an egg where a chicken is born from. Their are lots of parts to a chicken egg. Below I listed some of the things a chicken egg has inside it and what it does. # Shell - Protects the embryo (chick)/Gives air for the chick with it's pores # Shell lining - Protects the embryo (chick)/waterproof so water can't get in OR out. # Egg white - Protects the embryo (chick)/Provides embryo (chick) with water. # Chalaza - Protects the embro (chick) from vibrations (also acts like a seat belt). # Egg Yolk - Provides food for the embryo (chick) # Air sac - a sac of air at the bottom of the shell. # Embryo - Where the chick grows out of on the egg yolk. Below I will explain what the parts of an egg look like. # Shell - A hard shell that has tiny holes in it called pores. # Shell lining - kind of like a rain coat that is waterproof (if you ever took a seed apart, the you would see a similar thing). # Egg white - Water that takes in any vibrations and provides water for the embryo. It doesn't evaporate because of the shell lining. # Chalaza - kind of like a seat belt or a rope holding the chick to the egg so it won't wobble around in the egg. # Egg yolk - The round yellow thing that you eat when eating an egg. It provides food for the embryo. # ? # Embryo - a tiny white dot on the egg yolk that will later become a chick. # Did you know that when you eat a chicken egg, your not really killing the chicken? That is because the dad of the chick didn't fertilize the egg yet, so their will never be a chicken in that egg.

An "Easter Egger" chicken, also called an Easter Egg Chicken, is one that lays green- or blue-hued eggs. The eggs look like they are already dyed for Easter, albeit on the pale side, hence their name.

Easter Eggs chickens are bred from Araucanas, whose blue- and green- egg shell gene is dominant. American versions of these hens are called Americaunas or Americanas.

Many backyard chicken enthusiasts love having a few of these Easter Egg chickens in their flock for the enjoyable variety of color that winds up in the egg basket.
