[cressalynn]

Has anyone seen a white olive egger?? I think Mom is the sappire olive egger and dad is either BCM or blue copper maran.

I had that happen with my Easter Eggers, dad was blue and mom was splash. I had 2 white chicks from them... if your chick's parents were a blue and blue bred together it could be splash color.

I'm using a Blue color Ameraucana rooster over my French black copper Maran hens. Thats been making an amazing F1 egg color, plus I'm getting blue and black hens that are stunning. For the F2's for now they are bred back to an Ameraucana, which has made a little lighter olive colored egg (those aren't going back into the breeding program I just sell the chicks to friends and such) the real plan for my F2's is breeding them back to a French blue copper maran rooster, they are harder to get a hold of here but this summer/fall I have some promises of potential roosters. I'm super excited for the second phase of my program... also I like to use the French variety of Maran because of the feathering of the legs, they pass a smaller version of the feathering to the offspring so I can easily identify the Olive Egger chicks/ Hens. I also hatch Easter Eggers so thats how I can keep them straight (gotta try and make things easier on yourself)

(Ameraucana Rooster)


(French copper maran Hens) *only the biggest eggs
-because I like big hens


(F1 Charcoal blue) *beautiful feather lacing


(F1 black)


(This is what the other colors look like, Since I don't have a picture of the lighter blue Olive Eggers... these are two Easter Eggers... they are the second mix I'm working with)

Soon I will be adopting a white olive egger from a farm rescue I volunteer at so its for sure possible! Im still learning stuff so I don't know all the genetics and stuff but she's full white with the cheeks and beard along with layer light green eggs.

I had a white leghorn hen (of course lays white eggs) hatch out eggs last summer. Ended up with 4 white hens (1 or 2 with black speckles and the other 2 solid white) and 2 White roosters. The dad is an Olive Egger. 3 out of 4 have recently started laying. 1 lays pink eggs, 1 lays light green eggs and 1 lays pretty dark olive eggs. Eagerly awaiting the 4th to see what color her eggs will be.

I've got a white Olive Egger! (Solid white, plus occasional dirt stains ) I'm not sure her parentage, but of my 3 Olive Egger sisters, she's the only one who actually lays green eggs. The other two lay pinkish/beige and white/khaki eggs respectively.
