Interesting, would you say that the eggs on the third row from the top are "Grey" colored? Perhaps my eyes or monitor are playing tricks on me but they don't look green or blue, but grey?

No, they are not grey. The camera on my phone sucks. There are some in the middle with a greenish tint, but the rest are blue.

Thanks for replying, also is it the camara or your blue eggs seems rather matte? I've read that glossy eggs are recessive to matte ones.

glossy on the left, matte on the right

Most are matte, some (not many) are glossy.

Yippee!
Your eggs are such a lovely shade of blue.

They look more violet.

I don’t think my pullet Annabelle has laid an egg in a few days. She is pooping. I hope she will start laying soon.
Looloo’s eggs are getting larger

Can't say I have a preference.

I'm surprised your pullets haven't gone broody yet. Araucanas are such a broody breed.
