Matching Hens with Eggs?

| Hello! I am trying to figure out which of our hens lay which eggs. Some are obvious but we are a little stumped on the different shades of brown. Currently have: 2 x Leghorns 3 x Speckled Sussex 2 x Barred Rock 3 x Easter Eggers. The leghorns are obvious, and 2 of the easter eggers lay green eggs (one lays solid green, the other lays speckled green). I am pretty sure the other easter egger lays the reddish-brown eggs (#5), but I am stumped with #2, #3, and #4. [link] [comments] |
