emmastar Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Hello I have 2 days left till the eggs are dur to hatch and am getting quite excited as i have no idea what one will be , Story of this egg is i got 6 silkie eggs through the post and had room for 1 more so i went to someone i knows house and they gave me this egg saying they didnt think it would be any good as it was taken from under the broody that morning but give it a try , well 5 days after it was fertile but i dont know what it will be . The egg is larger than the silkie eggs and is a bluey greeny tint to it any ideas what sort may hatch from it , Yes i know i will hopefully see the wee thing in 2 days or so but its been on my mind for the last 19 days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chicken bark Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 I hope you get to find out what it is. With my luck I still wouldn't know after it hatched. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CatsCube Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 something with araucana mixed in. I think all blue egg layers have araucana in their heritage somewhere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
emmastar Posted May 23, 2011 Author Share Posted May 23, 2011 Thanks it will be a cross of some sort as i dont think he had a pair of anything apart from polish and silkies and they had all been running together in a pen so could be anything .
