Brown?

I’m not an expert but the bottom two look more like the Sapphire Gem that Hoover sells than The Sapphire Olive Egger. Aren’t the olive Eggers supposed to have yellow legs? Do all three hens have the same leg color?

I think that is a more likely explanation. 2 of the 3 are actually Sapphire Gems. Grrr....not what I wanted! I bet the store mixed them together and didn't label correctly. Or the hatchery accidentally mixed them up.

I’ll bet you a dozen eggs that you’ll get green eggs from the first one then.

I mixed that up

Depends on the cross.

Right, but I’m comparing his hens to the pics from Hoover’s. His first pic shows a bird with a crest and what looks like a pea comb but I can’t see it’s legs. The last two do not appear to have crests and they have dark legs with single combs.
