I ordered Ameraucanas. From a breeder. They couldn't fulfill my order and offered Olive Eggers instead.
I have 4 week old babies that have no muffs or beards. As far as I can tell, they have single combs, not pea combs. That, though, I could be wrong on. I'm not real experienced with chicks yet, it's only my second year raising them. They have a single row of bumps, and they're starting to stick up already at 4 weeks.
The breeder has multiple colors of marans, so I figure the ones they're calling Olive Eggers are a Maran/Ameraucana cross.
What do you guys think, could I possibly have any that will lay olive eggs even though they seem to have single combs and no muffs or beards?
I know this pic is really zoomed out, I haven't taken any recent close up ones. I can, if anyone is interested.
