Am I colorblind? (Blue Egg laying Breeds)

Thank you @TheKindaFarmGal and dheltzel. Funny you both mention the trouble of showing color in photos. I should have made mention of that in my first posting. I have read that numerous times when reading about egg color. I do understand that as well. I have had trouble photographing certain things trying to show correct color.
I'm glad you mention the brown suppressing gene. I haven't heard of that before. Ill have to read up on that. I have Leghorns. It may come in handy breeding for egg color. I know they are used some for the Super Blue egg layers. I assumed it was just to help boost production.

@duluthralphie I believe you if you say all those eggs are blue. I get the pic color argument. The first pic all three look green. Second pic has a Blue in middle. Are the other two Blue also? Just lighter?

Some of them are green just to show the difference in the colors. The other two are green!! You win!!

The first step in getting proper photos is to use a flash and do not use ambient lighting. Make sure that you have the proper white balance applied. Make sure that you are viewing images on a color corrected monitor. Remember that most people viewing your posted images will not be viewing them on color corrected monitors. Laptops are notorious for displaying colors improperly.

Use srgb as the color space for posted images. Most browsers do not properly display the argb color space or any of the other enhanced color spaces.

Today's cameras have the ability to record the true color of objects if set properly. Using the correct white balance is critical. Today's cameras if set properly may record images of colors that your eyes are deceived by.


Err.. HELP>..

I only have an IPhone. What do I do to get it to capture what I see?

Haha... Not trying to win anything. Nothing to win. Unless you want to send me some of those pretty eggs!
I wasn't sure if you were just showing how hard they were to photograph...and those were all really blue. Just different shades.
As I've said, I like both green and blue eggs. It just seems harder to find blue. Just like the pics I posted. The green (to me) eggs are advertised as "true blue egg layers"... "light Blue."

Sorry I can't help you. I don't have an IPhone or for that matter any kind of cell phone.

But Google is your friend although I suspect that the IPhone is set by default to sRGB color space without any way to change it. This is a good thing.
