Acquired a new roo to replace my butthead roo. He's an olive egger. His father was a welsummer/CCL. His mother is any of the following: pencil Plymouth rock, ameraucana, lavender orpington, or Rhode island blue.
I will say, all his chicks have laid green eggs. Some brown, mostly green. I got him and a small flock of OEs. They're hard molting right now, so they're very rough looking. There's 5. One has the standard EE brown, one is black, one is black and grey(?), then two that are similar to a CCL in color.
My hens are three mutts, golden comets, buff and chocolate orpington, a black star, and an olive egger.
Will get photos of the hens when I get a chance to band them, attached is a photo of Zorg and my hens with old roo
