i got a rir pullet that just started laying and it took me a while to figure out that it was she who was laying these pale green eggs. i asked the farmer from which i purchased her and he told me that rir do sometimes lay a green egg....but this is like once in a green moon freak type thing..he said that she is a true rir but there is some sort of recessive gene that affects the egg color..i truly trust this guy because he is a 3rd gen. farmer and he knows a great deal...so consider yourself very fortunate....cross her with a marans or any rooster carrying a dark brown egg gene, maybe you will get a hen with a deeper green laying trait
