[rosyposyosy]

right when my neighbors trys to get rid of my chickens

an egg. I dont have a pic, i only have my phone as a camera, and it sucks, every pic the egg looks white.

it is long and skinny, just barely bigger than my banty's eggs.

it is a blue/green, like a robins egg except lighter.

i dont know how old she is exactly, i didnt document at ALL when i got my chickens. i got her late april, early may, maybe later than that, she was around a week old (or a runt) she has white earlobes, very thick beard + muffs, green legs (they really are green it is so strange!) and has been squating for the last week and a half. comb grew all of a sudden (i went to a wedding, came back, and it was way bigger!) 2 weeks ago.


i tried to send a pic i had just of her face, but it didnt work

Grats? Rosey!!! Thanks for all the info and the picture is fine...
I hope your neighbor is Not being succesful?
My brown eggs never come out the right color either, the closest I get is when I take a picture in sunlight, without a flash, but even then they arn't quite right.
Sounds like you have some nice looking eggs though, that's cool.

Btw, I cant find my EE's earlobes

A better pic of her face

Mine all have greyish-yellowish legs, white earlobes, and lay creamy off-white eggs, unfortunately

Some green or blue color would be nice!

What about comb type, overall feather color, beard, muffs?

I have been waiting to post about my 3 new EEs!!! My white EE, Pearl, is the first one to lay. In the pic, her egg is on the left. The middle egg is from my one-year-old EE, and believe it or not, my Blue Ameraucana lays the khaki egg with speckles on the right. That goes to show that even if you have a true Ameraucana, you don't necessarily get a better egg color! Pearl has a peacomb and greenish legs.

Go, Pearl! Congrats, Lynn. Now if she could just have a word with my Silver....

Bayouchica, your bird looks somewhat like mine...she was a product of a buff amercuana cockeral crossed with a blue wheaton pullet. Both parents were purebred Amercuanas coming from the stock of Mike Blehm lines. Her color is not acceptable in the breed club or shows but a very good example of a good looking true Amercuana bantam should be. She has produce some awesome babies tho!

It's probably my monitor or my old video card, but I can't tell what color the egg on the left is, it looks like it’s probably a light green or blue?

Thanks for the clarification.
Grats on the egg, she's a beautiful chicken

I had a dickens of a time getting a decent pic of those eggs! In almost every pic, they looked white, under all types of lighting. Anyhoo, it is a nice light bluish/green. Kind of a soft turquoise. I feel really lucky to have 2 EEs that lay nice, bluish eggs.

My other two EEs that I am waiting on, look like sisters. They also look like they may have some RIR, or some other reddish chicken genetics in them. I'm predicting a green or olive color egg from them! We will see!
