My Americauna, Flossie Mae, just laid her very first egg and it's a beautiful blue! She was the last hold-out of my older girls. Her sister, Ezell, also and Americauna, lays green eggs. I'm SO EXCITED! I had a feeling Flossie would lay blue and Ezell green.
By the way, they are named for my grandmother and her sister. I named my Rhode Island Red after my grandmother's other sister, Lula Belle. What can I say, my great-grandparents were hicks, literally. That was my grandmother's maiden name. Nana hated her name but still wondered why no one named any of their children after her. That's why I named my favorite hens after her and her sisters.
