coco Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 My silkie cross Coco laid her first egg today.and it was blue. I thought silkiies laid cream eggs but it was a perfect 40g blue egg. We don't know what she is crossed with so I was wondering which chickens lay blue eggs. The place I got her from had about 200 hens and cockrels of severall different breeds all free ranging. Any suggestions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Saronne Posted September 18, 2009 Share Posted September 18, 2009 Maybe daddy's an Araucana or Legbar... saronne x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coco Posted September 18, 2009 Author Share Posted September 18, 2009 i have been in touch with the lady I got her from and we think its an Araucana which is nice as I was thinking about getting Araucanas but they were too expensive. It was lovely to get 2 eggs today, one brown and one blue. it will be interesting to see what my little Silkie cross Pipa lays when she starts although I think I'm going to have to wait till spring as she is showing no signs of laying at all. she seems to be quite a bit younger than the other two and is still very nervous.
