EE's EGGs - who, where, when, what (let's track who laid what and who hatched from what)

Guess I should have read the previous posts!
:)

the Blue gene is tightly closed to the Pea comb gene by 4 centimorgan distance(anything more than 25 will segregate independently), this means they dont segregate independently, so as soon as you spot a pea comb chick(out of the EE or ameraucana mother) this chicks has 95% chance of laying a green egg(if it was a hen) 
 
OK, so I am so excited today!!!!!
I have 4 EE's, and my first egg was a pretty blue.
Yesterday I collected a pale creamy tan one....slightly disappointed...but it was still beautiful :)
This morning, In the middle of the run I saw one of my girls "nesting"...she got up, sang her song, and this is what she left behind!!!!




Crazy right???!!!! Such deep green!

So, I thought it would be interesting to show you what came from what out of the 4 girls I have.


This blue egg came from one of the two girls shown after the pic. They were both in the coop after collecting eggs, both came out and this is what they gave me...




"Cheeks"

"Butters"


Next, this creme colored egg...





Laid by "Taz"...aka Taz the Spaz...can never get a good picture of her! But see how tiny her comb is? This may be the reason in the tan egg?



Next, this beauty!








Laid by "Chippy"

How fun to see that I am getting all different colors by my 4 girls. Just waiting on one of the first two to lay so I can see what the 4th color will be!!!!!

That green egg looks very much like my Naked Neck EE laid! I'll have to take a picture :D Beautiful!

I think Butters is your layer out of the first two. She looks more developed.

A naked neck EE? I just have to see that girl, and her egg!!!
 
aoxa, Murtle is so cool! she's got a kind of Moe Howard doo... NN are really unusual... I, myself, am a huge fan of the unusual...
She is indeed awesome :D Thanks! I have two of her sisters. Both named Spock. They are highly unusual as well, and both have pea combs, so have a high chance of laying green eggs :D

They are notorious for starting late, but all mine started between 5-7 months old. I think Lilly is just the same age as mine are.
