Show me your blue eggs!

[mediazeal]

My Ameraucana has just started laying and the eggs are greener than I had hoped. They are D3 on the Ameraucana egg color chart. A nice color but I am now curious about the variations of blue. And I would love to find some lines that lay really blue eggs.

Show me pics of your blue ameraucana eggs!
Are they ameraucana or ee?
What lines are they from (if you know)?
If you have the ameraucana egg color chart, please include their color match from there too.

Can't wait to see what you all come up with!

Here is my Ameraucana's egg. The Ameraucana Breeders Club sells this egg color chart. You really need to have it in your hand to get the colors right. They are available at the Ameraucana.org site for $3.
My pullet is from Gabbard Farms.
My Am's egg matches the D3 color (doesn't look like an exact match in the photo).

In web colors in html it is #B6C8CA, maybe a touch lighter.
in RGB it is
R: 182
G: 200
B: 202

Wow Jean! Do you know where those rate on the color chart so I can look at mine to get a sense of them? They look like they are in the A groups from what I can see online.
Love the pic.​
