Well, For dark eggs you want either Marans, Barnavelders, Welsummers or Penedesencas. (although the Barnavelders In America don't seem to be as dark as they might be.) There are a bunch that do white.

For the Barnys I would contact:

He has lovely birds and sells eggs.

I think Beth has Marans and her birds are lovely too.

I'm not sure who else might be helpful. Good luck!
