Egg colour

[Woodvale Hens]

Complete newbies....we have 10 chicks arriving June 9th. I ordered five Ameraucana's and was wondering exactly what colour of eggs will I be getting? The actual chick's I am told will be a "mixed bag" different colours of birds. Does that mean they will all lay different colour eggs? In all my research I'm not getting any definite answers. I was looking for blue eggs, Easter Eggers but am thinking I will have to breed my Ameraucanas with another breed to get my blue eggs?

You will probably get both blue and green eggs.

If you got them from a hatchery, you probably got Easter eggers. Some EE lay beautiful blue eggs.
