Do you know what shade eggs I should be looking for? Also I know some Marans eggs have more of a reddish tint to them is this more desirable for producing olive eggers or more of a dark brown is better? Thx!

Looking for tips to breed olive Eggers with the most pigmented green possible. Looking to produce the greenest eggs

Thank you so much!! I’ve been going crazy trying to find answers (really just to learn) but it seems not many people are familiar with wheatens. The one on top in the picture (I didn’t post individual pictures of this one because I think it may be my only pullet ) would you say blue wheaten or...
