Oh, no, I am not disappointed at all. I wanted the all green egg layers. I did not want any of the brown, yellow, pink, or lavender eggs because they all look brown to me. The blue eggs look green to me. So 100% green is exactly what I wanted and I am thrilled with my green egg layers.

Oh I wanted some of those lavender eggs LOL! It was so neat but it looked more like a grey pinkish cast, it was so lovely. Too bad that girl got killed by a predator.

Both my EEs from Ideal lay a bluish-green egg. They're good layers, too, I get a greenish egg just about every day between the two of them. Not my most affectionate birds, though.

From Townline: 2 blue, 2 green

The bluer layers are more buff colored and bigger birds, and their eggs are as big as my Barred Rock. The green layers were more chipmunk chicks and now darker / partridge, and lay smaller and pointy-er eggs.

I got 3 EE's from TSC/ Ideal I think 2 roo's and 1 hen who lays a very pretty tan/pink egg with white speckles.......and she lays 1 every single day maybe she might break 1 tx a week, but I see her egg alot in my basket, so no complaints, she isn't exactly friendly but is social able, you can pet her, but she doesn't like being picked up. she's pretty too

My sympathies. Chickens are lovely and are missed.

Not to mention if you are counting on their eggs. It's not like you can just go out and buy another laying hen at the corner store ... yet!
