I have two SGE's from Tractor Supply who uses Hoovers and BOTH of them are laying the pinkish brown eggs like you have pictured. The 5% estimate they claim does not seem to be accurate at all. Here are my eggs from my midnight majesty and the SGE's (the very bright dark brown one's are the MM...
I have two starlight green eggers that look similar to her and the eggs are also the pinkish brown rather than green. I think that 5% is a low estimate considering both the green eggers we have lay eggs that are far from green.
would you take a look at my post? I have one with the black at the base of the neck and one that has a comb but the pattern at the neck doesn't break like the other...

On this one I'm almost positive she is a hen because I also have 2 silver laced that are the same age and both have combs starting and one has a wattle and she has neither. I'll be posting them next to get opinions on if they could be roosters. Since I'm sure one of the straight run I had...
I have no idea if this is a rooster or a leghorn because he/she reddened up quickly and I didn't think leghorns were a breed tractor supply had offered at the time but it looks so much like one. It is 9 weeks old and super friendly but I see the tail feathers arching a bit and that comb and...
