As the title - what color would a sapphire olive egger lay? Dark green or pastel? Trying to figure out what other breed and egg color to go for… thank you so much!
 
Should be more of a dark green than pastel. Olive Eggers are made by crossing a blue or green egg layer with a dark brown egg layer. That said, there's also a chance for brown.
 
Hoover's says they lay olive colored eggs. So they should be pretty dark.

Isbars and a few of the hatchery egger hybrids lay lighter green eggs.

Having said that, there is no guarantee of egg color with hatchery hybrids, just probability.
