What color eggs will she lay???

[azygous]

I always thought the claim that color of eggs a hen lays matches the color of her ear flaps was an old wives tale. But I surveyed my flock and discovered that the lighter the ear flaps, the lighter the shade of the eggs. My darkest ones are my Welsummers with very dark brown ear flaps. When they begin laying they will lay the darkest eggs of all the breeds.

That black hen with the white ear flaps will probably lay white or very light vanilla eggs.

Your Red sex links will lay from brown to dark brown

Your blue chicken looks like a blue crested old polish and the black one is a Langshan

Black Langshan- brown eggs sometimes dark brown
Blue crested old polish- tinted eggs

Now that I looked closer at you black chicken it appears to have some orange streaks on her neck feathers like a black sex link, she probably some kind of mix.

She was marked "Easter egger mix"... But I have no clue.... I am a complete "newbie"... I had never seen one with feathers on their feet..... Thank you for your help.
