BLUE EGGS

Posted on Tuesday 25 September 2007


Eggs of this nature were first seen by missionaries in South America in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, but it is not widely known that the history of blue eggs in the Cotswolds stretches back as far as the 1920’s, when botanist and explorer, Mr. Clarence Elliott, who toured the world collecting rare plants, brought three hens and a cockerel back from Patagonia to Stow-on-the-Wold, Gloucestershire in 1927.
