What do you think?!

Edit: I am not really interested in her breed. We stopped caring about breeds a long time ago. We just thought she was an interesting, unconventional mix and were curious as to what my friends here thought.

Alright my BYC identifier friends.....

We have been hatching our own chicks or allowing broody mamas to hatch for quite awhile now. Nearly all of our laying stock are mutts. Watching them mature is the best part because we generally have an ode who the egg came from and who the papa is. However, we have a mystery and today found her laying an olive green egg.

Take a stab at the mix on this one. There is no chance she comes from anything identifiable, so in other words, she is a mutt of a mutt of a mutt.

Here she is...

Looks like a sapphire, with a pea comb and black legs

Huh? What, now?
You have a bird that comes from nothing identifiable. A mutt of a mutt of a mutt.
But you want us to guess what breeds she's a mix of?

You could call her an olive egger.

Hilarious

It is fun for us, at least, to try and identify different characteristics of different breeds. The plumage on this one, along with the egg color and comb, I found to be interesting and thought it would incite some neat comments.

She looks like a sapphire gem, so just lie to everyone and say that so they will think she is fancy.

 

[BastyPutt]

Is a sapphire gem the result of a specific cross? Or is it a stand alone breed?

All I know is what I can find online, but there is conflicting information. Hoover's is the one who TMed the name, but other photos online look different than the ones on Hoovers website.
