Well, my final pullet Dot(possibly changing to Polly) has finally started laying, and wouldn't ya know it I think she just might be an olive egger. Her egg is darker than the others and has the same color inside shell as outside while the others have a light blue inside.
Infact the pullet (Gladys) was first to lay and I thought it was blueish/green but next to Dot's egg Gladys' looks more brownish/green. And then there is Dash(now Dolly) and her egg is a nice robins egg blue.
Pictured are the 3 eggs I found yesterday compared to the eggs that I know, from seeing them lay, came from Gladys & Dash. And then I have the old hen Henryetta that lays cream when she is laying.....so when ya line them up beside each other it looks like a printer is running low on ink lol.
Dot and Dash came from same hatching but lay different eggs.....but hey I am lucky as I will always know which hen isn't laying since they all lay different shades.
