Color of eggs

[My fair lady]

I'm new to having chickens.but a few of the girls have started laying eggs. My barred Rock, wellsummer, and buff orphington. Someone is laying light green eggs, mint color. Which could this be?

Post a picture of your girls, someone is obviously a Easter egger. Probably the one you think is a welsummer.

I agree, someone is masquerading as a breed that she is not! Post some photos and let's find the impostor!

Are these the only 3 breeds you have? I was surprised when I got a blue egg one day because my Ameraucana had never squatted and had no comb to speak of at the time, but apparently she was ready to lay after all. Do you have any other chickens at all that may have laid this egg?

I have an astralorp, two Rhode island Reds, and I think a rooster that was supposed to be a maran. They're all just turning 4 to 5 months and the surprise rooster crowed for the first time this morning.

I have astralorp, 2 Rhode island Reds and now what I think is a rooster.
All about same age between 4 and 5 months.

Sorry for the duplication above. Just getting used to this format

Your cockerel is the silver laced. Your Welsummer is an EE. Legs are wrong color for Welsummer. Yay for green eggs!

Agreed, the black and white is a silver laced Wyandotte rooster. Your green egg came from the brown and grey pullet with the dark legs, an EE.

Thank you so much for your input. I was beginning to think what I thought was a silver laced Wyandotte hen was a rooster. The tail feathers are starting to get long and graceful. Well the people I got these chicks from ...saw me coming. A real newby! I'm happy about the EE. Now I need to read about them. Guess I'll be looking for a home for my two roosters that I purchased as hens. I started to see the two of them squaring off. They need to go soon. I just love my Barred Rock, Barbara. She is so affectionate.
