olive eggs

Hi I was just curious about how I could get olive eggs, I heard that you can cross a brown layer with a blue layer and you get an olive egger, but last year my sapphire gem roo bred with my easter egger hen and their daughter just lays easter egger light blue eggs, not olive eggs. Does anyone...

Hi everyone and thank you to all the posters and experienced chicken keepers for the amazing threads i have been reading over the last 8 months. I moved rural and finally got to own my own chickens. This is going to be a bit of a story but i promise it gets to a question, and i think it would be...

These Olive Eggers from Ideal hatched 5/19 or 6/23. They are a cross between Easter Eggers and Welsummers or Barnevelders. These have multi-colored plumage with some having beards and muffs similar to Easter Eggers and some not. They are excellent layers of Olive Colored eggs They currently...

Mystery solved!! I am very happy and proud to announce that my baby girl just laid her first egg!!!!! August is an Olive Egger hen!! <3

Ok, I've seen this thread a million times, I'm sure you're all sick of seeing it :lol: but I can't seem to find what I'm looking for. I did a lot of research before purchasing my chicks from a very nice breeder that was quite a drive for me. She was listed on the ABC breeder directory, though I...

Gorgeous baby chicks for sale. 1 week old. Mother hens are Easter eggers, olive easter eggers, and Ameracanas. Rooster is Black jersey giant. I'm hoping these chicks have deeper blue and deeper green large eggs with this cross. I’ll take back any that become roosters. #babychicks #greeneggs...

I have speckled brown, lavender, pink, green, etc. hatching eggs available. Most of the speckles are brown but some are lavender and occasionally blue. This flock has been selectively bred from crosses of Americana, Heritage Welsummer and modern Welsummers. None of my breeders have beards...

This pretty girl is the sweetest chicken, always wants to be right next to you (including my toddler!) and let's you pick her up, always. She was grabbed as a reddish chick out of a "ornamental mix" sold at Murdoch's. I feel like the chicken expert and can always answer my own questions but...

I have always wanted a colorful egg basket. While white, brown, and even blue egg layers are available in my area. BUT, green eggs are not. And since I would love them to accent my color basket, I thought, "why not breed them myself?" This will be my notes, thoughts and results page, so feel...
