Is it normal for brown laying chickens to lay white eggs at the start? I'm not sure which chicken is laying white eggs but one is. I double checked on line and they should all lay brown eggs. Doesnt matter to me just took me by surprise that's all. I think i've gotten 4 white eggs in a row and it's got to be same chicken they are kind of oblong, definately different shape than my Red Stars.

I have 2 RedStars,1 Australorp,1 BO and 1 BR.
 
Look at the earlobes. If they are white, they will lay white eggs. Are you sure of the breeds? Some light brown eggs look pretty white until you put a white egg next to them. JJust a few thoughts
 
My Buff Orpington has white earlobes, maybe it's her. I guess it could be a very very light brown, I will check next to white paper
