a stupid question..

[Myst4]

I have chicks with an EE for a mother and a Silver Laced Wyandotte......so will the pullets lay green eggs like their mother? Or since their father wasn't an EE,will they lay brown eggs? Maybe I just have to wait and see.

Thanks for that thread....that's great with EE roos, but my roo isn't an EE, my hens are. Will the same thing happen I wonder.

Well, i crossed a cochin to an EE and about half the hens laid colored eggs and the other half brown......so i would say 50/50.
