Where??

She was on the first "row" or road" on the right almost to the end street. Had a big cage of about 8-10 brown ones(green egg layers).

Don't marans usually lay the dark dark brown eggs?

What time was this?? I was there at about 9:30am and checked out all of the birds. Didn't see a one.

Yes, and sometimes are speckled too.

At 8 and I saw her with some still at about 9-9:30 but only had 1-3 left then.

Yeah, just my luck. But, from the way you describe them, they sound like they were Americaunas not EEs. EEs lay a big beautiful blue egg, very seldom green. I may be wrong on this, but I am pretty sure. I did see quite a few Americaunas there. My wife was with me and she is trying to talk me into some Lavender Orpingtons. I think she got bit by the "chicken bug" while we were there. LOL. I am going to research the LOs and maybe change my mind about th EEs or just get 2 of each.
