Why is my brown egg white?!

One of my Buff Orpingtons has laid two white eggs this week. She is still a pullet, but all of her previous eggs were brown with white speckles. She did lay two shell-less eggs or soft eggs and then the next two regular, hard shelled eggs were white. Here is her regular white speckled brown egg next to her white egg:


Here's a photo of her first white egg:

2fathens,
Has yours stopped the white speckles? Mine seem to have stopped. I think for me it was one of my hens first couple eggs. My 4 are all laying now and have been giving me 4 eggs each morning for the past 4 or 5 days. I was getting the speckled eggs before that. So, it might just have been the first couple eggs.
