Just got 5 chickens and the guy I bought them from said that one of them laid blue eggs. I believe that I have 1 New Hampshire Red hen, 1 Croad Langshan hen, 2 black hens that I believe are Barnevelders & 1 hen that I haven't a clue about. She brown, tan & white, smaller than the others. I believe she's the one that he said laid the blue eggs, but I just don't know enough about them. Been trying to research in my books, but can't find too much listed. Does anyone know much about blue eggs or the type of hens that lay them?
