So, VERY CONFUSED!!!!??

Banded bird was the one with butt dye?
So what color was the egg shell?

Yes.

Egg shell pinkish with blue food dye smears.

The other Golden neck girl not leg banded laid an egg with orange smear.

Large silver necked lady laid an egg with a bright purple speck, & was brown. Not leg banded.

Smaller silver necked girl laid a pinkish egg with no smear of any color. Not leg banded.

Only 4 birds?

I wonder if the olive egg in your first post here had just gotten darker and more brown than green? You'd need to open each of the 4 eggs and immediately peel the inner membranes off to see if there's any blue tint there.

I'll check the next time.
The very first green egg I got
was grey, but was green with brown speckles when wet.

Here's the 4 ladies. The gold necked girl on the left is leg banded as the green Egger.
