Will broodies reject eggs of a new color?

One of my best broodies is setting and I'd like to give her some eggs of a different color. She has hatched typical 'barnyard brown' and green eggs before. The new ones would be dark 'chocolate' eggs. Would she be likely to reject such dark eggs? I'm not sure how well chickens see color.
 
Mine set on blue and pink golf balls, I don't think color is the issue, as long as it's remotely egg shaped they won't reject them
