Old English bantam laying blue eggs?

[ecb4156]

So my old English bantam started laying. She’s the only bantam other than roosters and she is laying blue eggs.. I’ve looked it up and I can’t find anything on it. What could be the cause of this?

My gut instinct says that she is either an EE or Ameraucana bantam. Where did you get her ? Can you post a picture?

Where did you get her from? Pictures of the “Old English Game Bantam” would be helpful.

The only cause for a chicken to lay blue eggs is that they have a gene for it.
OEGB by definition do not lay blue eggs so there's a mistaken identity going on.

What other hens do you have? pullet eggs can be small like a bantam, possibly just a new layer or as mentioned mistaken identity

It could be an oegb cross.

This is exactly what she looks like. I’m out of town and do not have a pic of her but this hen looks just like her.

Where did you get her from? Is her coloring the same as the bird in the picture or body type, leg color, comb, earlobe color, etc.
