colored eggs?

[GaDawg]

So I went to the feed store today to get more feed and proceeded to tell them that the Araucanas that they sold me were actually EE's. I did this in a nice and joking manner because I'm not mad just disappointed, because I'm just getting brown eggs from them. I told them that I had 1 more chance to get a colored egg because not all of my hens have laid yet. (RIR and EE's mixed)
Well I went out to gather eggs for the second time today and I found a green egg...yea! I'm happy but still a little disappointed that out of 4 hens I'm getting 1 colored egg. I think they were ordered from McMurry and don't know how or why they can say they are Araucanas when they are not.

oh well....I will try again next spring.

How old where they when they started to lay? I have the same and i was wondering how much longer i have to wait for them to start laying. Mine are 16 weeks old.

mine started around 21- 22 weeks and I'm still waiting on one more to lay. she is going on 25 wks., but everyone is different. good luck!
