I found these 2 eggs today. I am new to the whole fresh egg eating. Are they on to eat? What caused this? My 6 chicks are 16 weeks and we've have been getting about 2-4 eggs a day. Not sure which all are laying.

Grayson is a Sapphire Gem. We a total of 6.... 2 Sapphire Gems, 2 White Leghorns, and 2 Barred Rocks. They are about 2 months old now.

The build is complete and now they have a guard too. Grayson standing tall on my son's shoulder. This is before we got the top cloth on. Think she is curious about what's up there.

I live in southern AZ. My new chicks care about 6 weeks old. We moved them to the coop already. Our temps at night are in the 40's. Do I need to keep using the red heat lamp for them at night?
