Which blue eggs for hatching

[BUFFS]

I though EVERYTHING went blue up your neck of the woods?

is that why the footie club next door play in blue & white,camouflage? in winter we do go blue..up to the neck, in the eighties i was a milkman and had to cover a round in crawley for a week, woke up that morning for 30ml drive and temp dropped to -18/19deg and stayed there for a week,finishing the round each day couldnt get any feeling in the legs below thigh level,dont ever want that again,prefer sitting in front of fire these days,toasting toes..and a nice big cuppa........heaven..

Ho Hum, I was with this nicely till Bramble, thinking I had it all worked out...Then the rest of you joined in
HB, do you have that in numpty language please Actually after a read or two i did follow it, I think

Well I'll hatch both colours, mark them (thanks Richmond, such an obvious solution) and when theys old enough to lay see which lays what colour. If both lots lay blue, then the cockeral will be the link, if blue follows blue and green follows green then the hen has to have a say. Then follow Bramble and 'fix' the blue.
Except for one small hitch, Ive got two cockerals in the pen, so what if one carries blue and the other...
And I thought chickens were supposed to be easy

oooo the cynasism!

yep, in an ideal world you would run two pens, one for each cockerel and record your results. unfortunatley we dont live in a ideal world and your experiments will take a bit longer!
