Olive egger, hybrid layer 'x

[lynnmhari]

I have a cuckoo Marans ,crested cream legbar olive egger cockeral ,I bought him some extra hens for company. 4 brown ex laying flock hens which are probably random hybrid layers .But two lay really pretty eggs ,one lays eggs aa dark as my cuckoo marans did.Another lays a pinky brown that has a lovely peach skin type bloom .So I wanted to try to get chicks from those. Does anyone know if the bloom is a genetic trait and if I would I get 50 brown 50 olive eggers ?ev2n from hybrids of uncertain parentage

Bloom is affected by genetics.
You would get 50 percent brown and 50 percent cream layers from that cross.

No all of the eggs would be green.
