This seems likely. Here are the ones in question.
Sandy feathered one we were told was Devon Blue.
Black feathers: Devon Bronze
and the grey and red were described as “normal / golden speckled hens”
I wonder if the grey is an “easter egger”. But equally we have had no chestnut eggs so Devon...
Thanks for the info. It’s hard to tell which is laying the blues, that’s the problem :)
We certainly have less what i would call “normal” pink/brown eggs than expected as the 2 red speckled and the grey speckled were expected to lay that.
They only started laying last week so it is possible...
Yes the Devon bronze is supposed to be a marans hybrid i think, Is that likely to also lay blue eggs?
the sandy coloured one is what was sold as a devon blue.
Can easter eggers look like any other hen?
I’m in uk. I’m not sure the golden speckled is their real name.
But i have seen mention of devon blue and devon bronze on a few sites.
Here are some photos. I don’t want to overload the site with photos.
Hi :) First time post having had 6 hens for around a month.
We purchased our hens described as follows
2 golden speckled (to lay brown eggs)
1 grey speckled (to lay brown eggs)
1 leghorn (white eggs)
1 Devon Blue (blue eggs)
1 devon bronze (dark chestnut eggs)
We got a selection to make it...
