What kind of hens are they?!

[Chickymama27]

These girls lay green, blue, grayish green colored eggs.. would love to know if anyone can identify their breed.

Starlight Green Eggers, maybe? I was reading this thread earlier and they look similar and seem to lay a variety of egg colors despite the name (pg 4 of thread has some egg photos).

I’m no expert though, so I could be way off!

Welcome to BYC!

They look like some sort of Egger to me, so you could just call them Easter Eggers.

People are making so many different kinds of colored egg layers now, and most of them come in so many varieties it’s hard to tell the difference between them. Starlight Green Egger is a possibility, or some sort of Olive Egger. Where did you get them? That should narrow it down.

My bet is also on some type of green egger. Starlight green eggers and Whiting true greens are the two I know about, but different hatcheries may offer other brand names of the same thing.

If it helps at all those look just like our Starlight green eggers we got from hoovers Hatchery

It was a colored egg variety through tractor supply

Very pretty birds!

I got a few starlight green layers this year that look like that too. They are much different than my older starlight greens. Those are mostly darker red birds very similar to the 2 birds right behind the circled ones in the photo.

Looking at the pics of the babies, adults, & eggs, I’m 99% that’s it.. Starlight and Whiting True green. Thank you! We have chicks hatching from Orpington Roos & I was trying to figure out what we might end up with
