Yes, they are olive. They're not blue and they're not brown, so I'd say they're olive.

My EASTER eggars lay olive colored eggs too. Do u need crushed oyster shell? It will help with calcium to strengthen the shells.

Don't be surprised if you get a few more rubber eggs initially even with oyster shell. The girl is still working out the kinks. We got all kinds of neat eggs in the beginning: rubber, double yokes, funny shapes. Took about a month or so for them to start laying consistent eggs. The one thing with rubber eggs is to make sure you are checking and collecting eggs quickly right now. I had a pullet get half a comb ripped off eating another girl's rubber egg. They can get a little violent toward each other in the initial laying stages, but will settle back down.

Your girls are beautiful! My olive eggs are the same way. Some are more greenish others are blue green.

'Olive' is subjective.......the more brown coating a blue base egg has, the darker the green appears......and there's wide range of greens.
Check out the 'Olive Eggers' thread and you'lee see what I mean.

There's a facebook page too...lots of good info.
