AJuff Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 I am starting to get excited. Heather our oldest columbine is showing signs of coming into lay, comb growing and face turning from pink to red. No crouching yet though. However I've just caught a glimpse of her ears and they are green!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Does that mean she will lay green eggs for def? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted September 21, 2007 Share Posted September 21, 2007 Wow, another one with green ears! I noticed the other week that Ruby's ears are green too! Will have to compare egg colours when they start to lay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 Do let us know when you get the eggs, won't you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xChicken04x Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 OOOOOO lovley! Our little Clover (jasmine) has blue/white ears, but she is only about 23/24 weeks and they dont lay till about 25/30 weeks. Good luck! xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karen & co. Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 I noticed this morning that one of my white leghorns has breen ears will she be a coloured egg layer? as I thought they produced pure white I would be chuffed to bits with either colour karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyBoo Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 Karen, our Leghorn lays pure white eggs - when she feels like it!! When I got her I was told they were prolific layers, well maybe in comparison to a cockerel they are but she lays on average once or twice a week if you're lucky. But they are pure white so at least you know when shes done it. Interestingly on the day we had 7 eggs we didn't have a white one, so she either laid a brown one or someone laid two Mrs B Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs B Oh poop I got 2 leghorns and a magpie to boost our egg production, as at the moment my 9 are laying 1 or 2 between them per day Perhaps when the Lilly Iris and Falcon get a little older we may get enough for one each for breakfast karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pearsons Posted September 22, 2007 Share Posted September 22, 2007 MyHeritage Skyline has white ears. I hope that doean't mean white eggs.... although any eggs from her would be nice. She has a big and bright red comb but isn't crouching. She's proably a bit young to lay yet though. Helen in Hume Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
