My chickens have been laying for many many months and have always laid pale green eggs, the last two eggs from one of them has very distinct blue spots on the top, is this ok?????
 
Yes, that is fine. The pigment of egg shells can vary depending on the breed of chicken, individual bird, and even at different times of year. The bluish pigment is just some extra thick pigment that was layered on during the shell-building process; it may or may not continue to happen.

My chickens often have varied egg shell colors. My Easter Egger usually lays green eggs, but she occaisionally lays ones with some darker spots or speckles.
 
Thanks ya'll, i feel much more at ease about it now! It was hard enough getting used to green eggs now blue spots! glad to hear its normal.
