Easter Egger layed blue egg and green egg?

[SoCal ChickaD]

Hello all,

My 6 month old EE laid her first eggs (4 blue eggs, all rubber) but they were definitely blue and now the first good egg is a dark green. I thought they only laid one color egg? Am I correct?

Any advice is appreciated!

I was of the understanding that they only laid one color egg as well, but one of my EEs goes back and forth between blue and green also. I know it's her egg because all the others have laid already when she does it! I'll be interested to see if someone has an explanation for this.

Thanks for the quick reply! I was so excited when she laid a blue egg! Not that green is anything to pout about... Maybe I will get lucky and she'll lay both! I know it's hers because I only have 2 hens (EE & Plymounth Barred Rock)

Thanks again!
