McSpin , I'm afraid I did not communicate my thoughts well . I've read a few posts about purple eggs , some coming from EE crosses . I hope if that occurs in your chickens you research the color of the shell inside and out . It [edt to say : " it " means purple eggs] appears to be possibly connected with those lightly tinted egg layers that sometimes produce the pink eggs . I'm very curious about why those unusual colors occur and if the color goes farther than the surface .
I'm still watching this thread in hopes that those who have published that all eggs are either blue or white will explain this [ your eggs as pictured ] . I assumed that in the " IC Chickens " breed reference chart the term '' tinted egg " referred to the outer shell only . Now I'm wondering if "tint " can extend through a white egg shell and the researchers still refer to it as a white egg . Inspite of being a little long in the tooth I'm very new to all of this .
And I add an apology for so many questioning posts that are so poorly written .
