just a question i am not sure of

[farmer boy]

I am wondering something I have no green egg laying genes in my hens or roosters but I hatched some chicks out and one of them lays a green egg and she has a pea comb and now she is broody but she makes this siren type noise its weird but back to what I was asking .. I don't know if you can create an green egg laying hen from no green egg laying genes .. I had some ees before but they were killed and only one offspring was hatched out and he was killed by a fox so im not to sure how I get green egg laying genes from that

Well the genes have to be there somewhere. What birds are the parents of the one laying a green egg?

im not sure who the mother or father is but I have no other hens who lay green eggs but pea combed birds are popping up randomly 2 so far a cockerel and now a hen so im not sure who they are coming from

Peacomb is dominant, so look your birds over to find which one(s) don't have single combs. Since you only have the one laying green eggs, I would expect she inherited the gene from her father.

all my rooster have single combs but two one has a cushion comb and a V-comb and I have no hens that have pea combs

The cushion-combed boy is almost certainly the daddy. Cushion comb is essentially walnut comb: a combination of both rose and pea comb genes.

okay I thought it might be him they have his colors and he is the alpha rooster (he is a partridge chantecler)
