Third egg - insanely blue!

[aart]

but don't be surprised if the color changes some

Yes, especially if that is the very first egg.
ETA...Oh, just realized title says third egg....third egg from that bird, or all the birds?

I wouldn't want to break it open!

I would.
Open up and immediately peel the inner white membranes off to see if that color is all the way thru the shell.
You can still keep the shell halves for posterity.

Thank you!

Pretty egg! If it were mine, I'd be breeding the hen that laid it back to a blue gene rooster.

Thanks! I wish we could! Not allowed roosters where we are sadly.

Third egg from all the birds - yet to have another from that bird. Hope the color doesn't change, though. We'll see
I may try that soon
Thanks!
