Whiting True Blue or Buff Orp??

[WillowNrose]

I bought this chick (“Nugget”) from Rural King. I was told she was a Buff Orpington. But as she grew she looked nothing like one. Then when her and my other new hens started laying the mystery deepened. I got her at the same time as my Ameraucana who lays green eggs. She is my only chicken who lays green eggs. But I was getting 2 greenish eggs a day and I just thought my Ameraucana was a super layer. Until the second egg starting looking more blue and I began questioning if it was another hen laying it. So I started looking at what Nugget may actually be…. I’m thinking Whiting True Blue. Thoughts?

Yep, she looks right for a WTB or Prairie Bluebell egger. Hens only lay once a day so you have two different layers of blue/green eggs.

Yep she definitely isn’t a buff Orpington, so I bet she is giving you the blue egg! Thats kind of a fun surprise!
