Yes! Here you go, our two suspects:
#1. This is the hen that we thought was a Rhode Island Red, but now we're pretty sure she is the one laying olive green eggs????
#2. This hen might also be a suspect, we are pretty sure she is a Sapphire Gem though!

OKAY ANOTHER UPDATE ... just caught our Rhode Island Red leaving the nest box and there is another olive grey egg in there! What in the world? So SHE is the one laying them. Obviously she is not a Rhode Island Red! :D Now I have no idea what she is
Yes! Here are the three types of eggs we are getting:
1. Light brown with speckles (we think this is the Rhode Island Red)
2. Medium brown no speckled (99% sure this is one of the Sapphire Gems)
3. Greyish / Olivish? littles with speckles

We have two Sapphire Gems, one Buff Brahma and one (we think) Rhode Island Red. Two of them have been laying for a while -- we think one Sapphire and the Rhode Island are laying -- but we just noticed someone else in the bunch is laying little grey eggs now! (Picture attached.) Any idea what...
A rainbow! How cool. My kid will be thrilled. This is the best. I thought I was buying three "Red Brahmas" from the store, but she must have accidentally been mixed in. Which is kind of neat I think! :)
This is my first time posting here! Our chickens are about 9 weeks old, and we are wondering specifically about this one. We don't know her breed but we think maybe New Hampshire Red or Rainbow? And we really hope she is a hen. Please let me know if you need more pictures!
