Hello, my grandma found 2 of these girls in the storage yard at work, and brought them home. I thought they were welsummers, but they lay a large dirty green egg. Anyone know what breed it is?

Must be mixed to lay green eggs. It could be Welsummer, brown Leghorn or even gamefowl with a small genetic portion of Ameraucana for the egg color gene
 
Upon further inspection, the eggs are olive.

They could be barnyard mix Easter eggers or possibly something from a hatchery like Starlight Green eggers. The color of the egg doesn't look dark enough for an olive egger, but who knows for sure? Enjoy them.
