Green colored feathers and poop? Help??

Sorry it took a while to get back. I'll try and answer all I just read. Ok, these are brahma chicks from Jordan farms. She says she's never heard or seen her chicks have green on them. They came out of the eggs with coloring on them. There were other eggs in there and none of them came out with green anywhere on them. There was wire separating them from the water. The green is still there, on thier feet, wing tips and sides of mouths. They hadn't eaten yet when they were in Bator, however I'm feeding chicken starter. Also, the coloring on feet is on the feathers that are on thier feet. When I mentioned this to the breeder, she stated that's odd because they don't get feathers on feet until much older? So I'm not sure what I have? The ONLY reason I thought it possibly could have been the food coloring, is because it was green. I too thought there was No way that could happen, but the green on them is abnormal and I have no other way to explain it? I'm going to go find the video I took and see if I can get a couple photos from it. Otherwise I'll have to wait until tomorrow to get photos of chicks.
 
Mystery KINDA solved? I spoke to breeder about green feathers, she said yes brahma are hatched with green feathers?? Why? So far no answer on that. Hopefully she'll give me one? Also mine were born with feathers on feet, which she says doesn't happen until 8-10 weeks? Maybe shipping scrambled DNA??
 
This reminds me of the time a little girl saw me painting a chicken drawing and she said that there was no such thing as a brown chicken. All i did was ignore her and keep painting my chicken.
