Lewis Posted February 11, 2011 Share Posted February 11, 2011 It should be a brown egg - always an odd one out though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Charlottechicken Posted February 12, 2011 Share Posted February 12, 2011 My pepperpot lays cream eggs. I think they should lay brown ones And I have a bantam Araucana who lays white eggs She should lay blue eggs but is particularly awkward Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gongladosh Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 I used to have a that laid light-coloured eggs, and occasionally, eggs that were so light we called them ghost eggs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jill the potter Posted February 17, 2011 Share Posted February 17, 2011 My light sussex lays cream eggs with a very shiny shell. Tikka, the black rock has always laid brown, large, torpedo shaped eggs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doctors girls Posted February 18, 2011 Author Share Posted February 18, 2011 the 2 sussex lay nice lovely light brown eggs and the black rock is just like yours torpedo in shape but white/cream eggs still nice to eat though john Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
