we bought peeps last spring the girls were sold as rhode island reds but we are getting green eggs?

Then you got some kind of a cross with Ameraucana in it.

I have three pullets and a cockerel. I get two brown eggs (one speckeled) and a tinted egg that is a pale purple. I have heard of tinted eggs. Do they come from a particular breed or are they just random?

They are good layers. I don't think they have missed a day since they started. I thought laying would be irregular particularly since we set the clocks back.
