What color are your cayuga eggs?

My friend is saying my Cayugas are mixed because they aren't laying jet black eggs. I get dark grey, light grey, greenish, and sometimes white eggs from my two ladies.
 
Cayuga eggs vary from black, grey, light green, and white. They are typically darker towards the beginning of the laying season and get lighter in color as time goes on. So your eggs are perfectly normal, and that is 100% a Cayuga duck. Definitely not a mix. ;)
 
Aerie,
Love my Cayugas:
700


When my girls start laying, their eggs begin smaller and near black in color. Once they get into their "groove", the eggs are slightly larger than a jumbo chicken and light grey in color.

Enjoy,
Rich
 
It's weird that she's so insistent that they're mixed, then.
