Space Chick Posted April 2, 2010 Author Share Posted April 2, 2010 Now its for Blue/Green eggs I didn't get the very pale girl due to CookieMonsters theory that the paler they are the less chance there is of blue/green eggs Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sjp Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Now its for Blue/Green eggs I didn't get the very pale girl due to CookieMonsters theory that the paler they are the less chance there is of blue/green eggs the ear lobes are a good indication of the egg colour white with a tint the egg will be the colour of the tint in my limited experiance of one columbine-----one cream legbar------one gold legbar and------oneWyandotte slight brown tint-------blue tint-----------------off white tint---------------white milky coffee egg-------blue egg-------------white with hint of brown-----white Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Purplemaniacs Posted April 2, 2010 Share Posted April 2, 2010 Ohhh they are lovely!! I was wondering what colour they would lay if it wasn't blue or green, now I know cream. Hopefully you will get or . Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleOwl Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 They are so lovely! Love their little hairdos! We went to see some 21 weeks today and are thinking of getting two next week - especially as there was a beautiful blue egg in the middle of their run!!! We liked the paler ones but maybe we should get the darker ones based on the theory of paler bringing paler eggs.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is just a theory, its not based on any quantifiable evidence (although maybe an Omlet survey is in order ) Why not get 1 of each?

This is just a theory, its not based on any quantifiable evidence (although maybe an Omlet survey is in order ) Why not get 1 of each? I think that's what we may do - a more creamy colour and a darker brown and that will contribute to a mini survey! Not the ones with the grey on though as nearly all of our current ones are a dark colour and we fancied some paler ones. There were about 12 of them today and they were all different! So sweet! Now if we could just see which one had dropped that beautiful blue egg..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
