Lavender and black split Ameraucana green egg

[Brandysgirls]

I've got some lavender and one black split Ameraucana and I've gotten blue eggs from them until today.. I got this sort of sage colored egg from one of them today.. I have not the slightest idea where it could have came from but my only guess may be the black one.. the reason I say that is because I had a black Easter egger and my black Ameraucana and one day she got out into the other pen and I thought that I put the correct one back but I don't know I'm second guessing myself now... They have slight legs and I'm pretty sure they're true.. but could I get a green egg from one of them? I mean I know I'm the egg color chart they could lay a green egg but this one just seems too green

I'm thinking you probably put the wrong chicken into the Ameraucana pen.

So you think you accidentally switched your easter egger with your ameracaunas? Can you distinguish them at all?

Well no I really couldn't distinguish them at all the only reason that I thought this was the correct one was because the other one had a little sort of silvery spot on the muff so I thought that was the wrong one but they both have the exact same color slate legs but I bought one of them as an Easter egg like when I first got into chickens so one of them is an Easter egger... I kind of think that I probably put the wrong one back in the pan

Yeah I'm kind of thinking you're right and it was my only black one too so, I can't take it back because I am npip and of course my grandpa is not.. he just wanted some for eggs.. so no more black one I don't think ugh

This is a good reason to always put a legband on your chickens. I'm about to legband around 20 of mine that are close enough to the same that I can't tell them apart.

Mine tried pecking each other's legs off with legbands. Terrible. They wouldn't quit. I had to remove the hands. Tried putting them on at night too since they usually don't notice anything amiss if it's added at night but come morning time they noticed and pecked at them mercilessly. Hope you don't have the same issue.
