It has happened, all seven of our chickens are laying eggs. We were very excited to find that our Tiger-Striped Ameracauna is a pure-bred, as her eggs are green. Only the pure-bred Ameracauna lay the blue or green eggs, so if we ever want to breed her with a pure-bred Ameracauna rooster, they will produce more little "Easter-Eggers". Check out the green egg in the picture below; it's a light shade of green, but green it is. And yes, I plan on eating some ham with that egg tomorrow for breakfast, just so I can say that I've had green eggs and ham.
Oh how I love those green eggs, and the pun that goes with it. Great looking clutch you have there, good luck and happy urban farming.
