Olive eggers are simply a subset of Easter egger where a blue layer has been mixed with a brown layer (usually dark brown) to produce the desired shade of green. There are various birds that are used for this but the most common is probably the Ameraucana or ccl x Marans so a lot of times the offspring have feathered legs from the marans side.
