Favorite Egg Color Poll

[Barnette]

Just a random poll: what is your favorite egg color that chickens lay? There's a wide variety of colors and breeds that lay them. Choose your favorite!

Chocolate, olive and blue

 

[Amer]

Speckled, whether brown or green

Sorry, I realized that I had it set where you could only choose one item. Edited so it's multiple choice

Cool! I've never seen a speckled green egg!

Just wanted to share these beauties with you chicken loving folks as there’s no one else I can share with that is as excited as I am about these colours - our first five pullets just started laying and it’s a pretty lovely gradient. Hard to capture the darkness of the brown (end) and olive (second from left) egg in there… might try to cross the speckled brown Maran with an Araucana - would that get us a speckled green?

I just like a rainbow basket.

It depends, you have a 50/50 chance if the rooster doesn't carry the speckled gene.
I say it's worth a shot though. You should get some nice F1 olive eggers.
