Does any one else have this cross?

I do! My little girl lays green eggs. Her dad was a RIR and her mum was an EE. She didn’t get the muff like her mum and looks just like a RIR, but with interesting eggs!

I have a broody hen, and I wanted to give her about 3-4 eggs from my friend. She has Americannas and RIRs. I was just curious what that cross might look like, and if any body might have owned /own them. I would keep them for egg production the future Thank you!

This is my rhode island red that has easter egger in her past. She lays green to olive green eggs. All the green eggs in the pic is from her
