I've been reading so many posts and my mind is going numb... If someone can help clarify if they know...

Will an Amercauna rooster with a welsummer or Black Copper Marans yield olive eggers?
Will a French blue Marans rooster mixed with a blue egg hen still make olive eggers?
And if I have a green egg Isbar, can I breed it to a brown egger to get Olive eggs as well??


I have a whole bunch of chicks and I'm thinking that we have a rooster in almost every breed, so I'm trying to figure out who to keep and who to pass along.

Thanks for any tips...

I haven't a clue. Maybe in the what breed or gender is this thread?
