In my experience if you give them bugs and kale leaves their egg yolks will get more orangey
 
can you see how blue pale it is? it's not white it's pale blue

Beside food which colors the yolk, e.g. containing xanthophylls (e.g. zeaxanthin from corn) belonging to the group of carotins ... the color and especially the taste is influenced by balanced vitamins and the quality of the feeded proteins.

Not all Celadon hens are laying perfect blue eggs ... when I setup my Celadon batch, there also were some pale blue ones.

I would say, you got a Celadon hen. Was this one of her first eggs, or is she laying for a while?
