Pink Egg?

[PouleChick]

Pretty! Still waiting on my first blue egg from my araucana can't wait! One of my girls (I think my light Sussex) lays a similar coloured egg - not always though sometime looks definitely more brown.

I'd guess the pinkish egg came from one of your SLW...
...mine lay light colored eggs that can look pinkish or orangish.
Could be the EE tho too....not all EE lay blue/green.

I too get an egg with a purple hue, its from a BA/EE (75/25) mix. Folks have said "thats the pinkest egg I have ever seen"!
I also get pink (very light tan) from one of the EEs, or as I call them Rainbow Eggers as I cannot predict egg color.
4 eggs from 5 girls, it is most likely from an EE, however I have a girl that lays 2-3 eggs a day (not an EE). When you break it open look at the shell inside, if it is also pink it came from an EE. However it does not have to be a colored shell, as they too can lay a white painted shell. Gotta luv EEs!

Oh interesting! Thank you for this info! I'll Crack it open next!
