The Olive-Egger thread!

Here is our OE "Ebony" and her first olive egg. I originally wanted/purchased an Ameraucana hen for the bluish eggs but alas this is what we got...

WOW! My Olive Egger just started laying last week and has only produced 3 eggs so far. First was 44 grams (typical for a pullet), second was 49 grams (getting bigger), but her third egg was HUGE. 63 grams. Some of my other pullets have been laying for a month and their largest was 52 grams.

I'm impressed.
