Battypuss Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 I was very kindly some eggs yesterday by a friend. Upon opening the boxes, two eggs were blue! Please can someone tell us which breed of chicken lays blue egss? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickd Posted April 16, 2005 Share Posted April 16, 2005 Jenny, our little white Bantam lays blue eggs and very proud of them she is too - makes a hell of a row about it afterwards!Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alexis Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Araucauna. My book isn't here but I think the spelling is right.The other site still seems to be down . . . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickd Posted April 17, 2005 Share Posted April 17, 2005 Yes, Araucaunas are what they are, so my learned wife has confirmed for me. Apparently they can lay eggs in various colours, not only blue, but also green and rose - I guess different ones lay different colours. The day our Jenny lays a green one I'll want to know what she's been up to!Nick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deimos Posted May 15, 2005 Share Posted May 15, 2005 Walking in the fields the other day I found a blue egg shell on the path under a tree. No chickens within a Km or so. Egg must have been quite small (little over 1 inch max length). I believe it had hatched but could see no nest in the tree above (and no mess on the ground around the egg).And ideas ?
