It's beautiful! I was so glad when my molty EE started laying again you miss the green eggs when they're gone.

My Easter eggers were hatched August 21st and I’m still waiting!they are getting close and this just made me wish even more to wake up to a colored egg!

My EE is 26 weeks old, and was hatched back in June... You may have a while to wait, I hate to say...

Yeah I’m sure it’s another month or two but i can’t help but be excited.

Whooohooo...laying an egg is always a miracle! May you have many many more. My Easter Eggers were always the most reliable layers. They are a great breed.

I have a black EE which used to lay greenblue colour too. Her daddy was a lavender araucana (not rumpless, we don't have rumpless in Australia) and her mummy was a Partridge patterned cross breed. She laid many green blue eggs and hatch a good healthy clutch earlier this year. He daughter also lays green blue and looks much the same, but the original black EE has now progressed from a pea comb to a standard multipoint comb and no longer is laying blue green eggs, hust a light tint cream on white. I know combed birds never or rarely lay green eggs, so as there are two lots of genes operating, has anyone ever heard of the gene for bluegreen eggs being deactivated?
