Question about EE and egg color

I have 3 ee's - 2 gray legs one green

1 gray gives me medium green eggs another gray gives me jumbo cream eggs.

My green legged girl lays blue eggs - all of 1 a month - I'm not sure but I think she's retarded.
 
I hatched nine EE mixes last summer, and I was curious about this too. I found that there's no leg color/egg color correlation, but there WAS a correlation between the comb type and the egg color. Pea combs made blue/green eggs, and single combs were brown eggs. Only exception I had was when I bought five EE hens from a lady, all with pea combs. One of them does lay brown eggs...

Here are the results I got ("Fly" hatched from a green egg, the rest from brown, and the sires were all half EE)...

"Amber" - single comb - green legs - brown eggs
"Michelle" - single comb - green legs - brown eggs
"Sedona" - single comb - slate legs - brown eggs
"Blue Belle" - pea comb - slate legs - blue/green eggs
"Fly" - single comb - green legs - brown eggs
"Shikaka" - single comb - green legs - brown eggs
#7 - single comb - slate legs - brown eggs
#8 - single comb - yellow legs - brown eggs
#9 - pea comb - yellow legs - blue/green eggs (she died laying her first egg.

It seemed like she wasn't built right inside.)

Arial my EE has 2 different coloured legs. One green, and one blue. These pics are when she was 12 weeks. She will be 22 weeks old tomorrow...no eggs yet. Does anyone else have an EE like this and if so what coloured eggs do they get from her? Maybe green and blue?
