Difference in Easter Egger vs Olive Egger

Pink eggs are really brown with a heavy bloom on them. If you wet them they go brown.
Olive eggers are from a chicken and rooster that have a blue egg gene and the other one has a brown egg gene. The off spring of an olive egger is an Easter egger. That means the carry the blue and brown gene so their offspring can lay blue, green, olive or brown eggs, you won’t know until they start to lay. Hope that helps!
My cream leg bar and aruacanas lay blue eggs. Crossed with a maran or Rhode Island Red you would get an olive egger.
