Do Auracanas lay green or olive colored eggs?, i currently have Easter Eggers, 16, most of the eggs my hens lay are shades of blue, blue green, and i am also getting olive colored eggs, i heard that sometimes they might, this is why i order many to see if the odds were that it would happen in my flock, it did!!!,

Araucanas lay blue or blue-green eggs. The reason your Easter Eggers lay green or olive is because they are Easter Eggers (a mixed breed) rather than Araucanas.

good morning thank you for the info,I believe i bought these EE's from McMurray Hatchery, long time patron of theirs, Im familiar with the mixed heritage of the breed, really like those green eggs though, Id say 4 of the 16 hens are laying the green eggs, the rest are blue, So in order toget more green eggs Im looking to order some Olive eggers where im sure to get the extra green egs im looking for, what to you think?

I think that in this Pic there was only 1 (greenish) top right hand corner lighter shade of olive green.

None of those look close to Olive. They are not dark enough.
