Yeah I had some wonder on that one as well, kind of looks like some Green Moss Opal we have, but I wasn't sure if this material was tumbled in the same batch, as you wouldn't typically put opal or Howlite in the same batch as agates.

I think the blue one is tiger eye, not sodalite. It is hard to tell from a still, of course. And not honey jasper, I think it is shell. The green one could be serpentine, but I dunno.
All good guesses. I'll third that the blue one is probably blue tigereye ('hawkeye') The green is neat! It reminds me most of hydrogrossular/vesuvianite, though that seems contextually unlikely. A bit too dark in tone for prehnite, too apparently evenly colored for moss agate I think?
