Egg color for Green Queen (?) rooster x Prairie Bluebell and Starlight Green Eggers?

[MysteryChicken]

From the looks of it, he looks like a production type Red cockerel, Green Queen sold by hatcheries are basically another name for Easter Egger wich are mostly bearded and with a pea comb.

Brown genetics is a polygenic trait, I beleive that at least 10 genes are responsible.

Green Queens are also Salmon Faverolle based Easter Eggers. Technically EE X Faverolle X EE.

I totally want one! Salmon Faverolles are on my wish list, I'd love to have a mix with SF in it that lays green eggs!!! Do you know how green queens compare to starlight green eggers? My SGE lay almost every single day, but they only lay medium eggs. Wondering if the green queens lay as frequently but larger eggs...

I have one, I can get pictures of her tomorrow. First time trying them out. She's getting close to laying though.

I'm not sure, never had the Starlight Green Eggers.

So, I set eggs that hatched in January. Here is the info and some pictures. Eventually I'll take better chick pictures and post those too. Production Red rooster X Prairie Bluebell and X Starlight Green Egger hens. 3 surviving SGE mix chicks, 17 were PBB mix chicks.

They're getting larger and most have wing feathers that look all speckled and barred, kinda like speckled sussex coloration. My rooster's wings were the same way, but eventually he molted them all out and he turned dark red with black on the breast and scattered dark brown in his wing feathers. The gray (blue) skin color and beaks are how Speckle looked as a chick - those are from him, not the hens.

Finally got pictures of my Green Queen. I kept forgetting.
She's Blue Wheaten/Duckwing Split.

She's not laying yet, still.
