Hi all!
I have, what I thought was, a welsummer that I bought from someone. As she got bigger, I've noticed that the color and pattern doesn't quite match welsummers I've seen in pictures. This morning, there was a large brown egg that I know for sure was from my RIR. Then an hour later I go out and see the welsummer in the nesting box with my Barred rock. She jumped out and no other hen went into the nesting box while my barred rock was still in there. When my barred rock went out, there were three eggs. One was blue. Yesterday I got a blue and an olive green egg. So I'm assuming she started laying yesterday and I only have one EE (someone mentioned she might be a starlight green egger) that I know of. Can someone confirm if she's possibly a welsummer/olive egger hybrid?
