How many coloured eggs did you get today?

Yes it’s a gamble! I have one left to start laying and hoping she’s my winner!
Your eggs are beautiful, and I really shouldn’t complain because my brown ones are beautiful!
And they are all different shades - I had hoped a chick I bought would start laying dark brown eggs (a Marans hybrid from Hoovers), but Shirley turned out to be a Shorty so no dark eggs for me.
 
All brown cuz my olive eggers that have started laying are laying brown eggs instead of olive 😭😭
My only olive egger is laying a speckled brown egg. 😪😪😪. I have 2 EE. one started laying a beautiful blue egg. The other one has not started laying. I am praying she lays a green or olive egg. I have 2 Creme Legbar. The one that started laying, lays a blue egg, very close to the color of my EE.
Only hope for green eggs is that 2nd EE, a mottled black and white that looks like Americana. Otherwise, I will have to do some breeding to get a couple of olive eggers.

In the mean time, here are the colors I get.

Those very dark eggs are beautiful.
 
I have one EE that hasn’t been laying for months… and when she does lay, they are thin shelled, rubbery or small. Not sure what’s wrwong. But beautiful colored eggs!
Hoped if she moults at a year and a half her factory will reset. I have a couple like that. They are just basically lawn ornaments now.

My one hen Petunia has been plagued with thin, soft, and even retained eggs. She is going through a very heavy moult right now so I am hopeful after she finishes she will start up with good eggs.
 
These are actually from the last six or seven days, but I'm super excited that several of the eggs that look blue in our kitchen lighting, show up light green in pictures.i don't even know what color to call the lower right one- is that mauve? It's a weird color. Not bad, just unexpected!
These came from Black Copper Marans, Easter Eggers, and a Prairie Bluebell Egger.
