Will a chicken not lay their egg colour, they are supposed to?

[HobbyHouse]

I have 2 pure golden crele legbars.
They are supposed to lay blue eggs.
One does.
The other I'm not sure. They will be 1 beginning of April and given the small size of the one in question I think she just started laying, but it's almost white.

I have a picture of what they should look like, and a picture of what I've been getting.

I at first thought it was my orpington who lays the super soft pink egg, as she is coming back after her winter hiatus, but I found the little egg in the nesting box and my orpington doesn't lay in the box so....
This is the only egg I cant account for, so I suspect it's her, but I'm kinda shocked that the colour isn't "what it's supposed to be"

I'm assuming that she just has a special, weirdo DNA thingy going on.

But I'd love to know what you know or have experienced.

Thanks!

they have all been wormed recently, and is healthy otherwise. Lots of water, veggies, food, a treat now and then.

Is she just super special

I know that can happen but twice in a week seems weird.

You're sure she's a pure bred Crested Cream Legbar? If so, she should be laying blue. It's possible she's an Easter Egger/Olive Egger that's looks like a CCL. Even though the Eggers are bred to lay colored eggs, it's not a guarantee because they are mixes.

You can provide a picture of both of your Legbars and we might be able to tell you if she's pure bred or a mix.

Probably means that she is not entirely pure bred.

These are them. I'm north sure which one had laid the blue egg.

I should also mention the lady that we got them from is incredible reputable and take care of her breed lines.
My other chickens are from her and do what they need to.

Any chance it’s from a brown or tinted layer and there was a bloom “spray” glitch? one of my orpingtons who lays a light tan egg, sometimes laid a white egg (missing the brown overspray) when she first started up. Same thing after a molt.

Can you post a picture of the bird in question?

See my initial thought was it was from my orpington given the colour.
But then I got 2 in one day, and I was like cool and in my brain it made sense one was smaller.
But then it happened again, and again and now I'm not sure.
These are my orpington eggs.
