EE roo over black Sumatra -- Will the offspring lay green eggs?

I think they should, how soon will you be hatching chicks?

I do not know for sure..........I know white cleans up a green layer, so the offspring will lay a "bluer" egg. But it might matter what egg colors your roo carries (what color egg did he come from).

awesome the egg the pop came from was dark green.

chicks hatched this weekend 3 Sumatra X EE babies in the brooder

What fun!

Now to pass the time until the pullets lay

I have some home-bred EEs that I am waiting to see what they lay also. I took an APA Ameraucana and crossed him over some of my big heavy Orpington girls. Should give me green layers who have some nice size.



Excited to see pictures.
