Is there any difference visually? Does one of them lay darker eggs than the other or are they the same color?

A guy we know has some RIRs and Buffs and EEs and he finally got an egg that is very very light brown...barely a brown tint to it. He knows it's got to either be one of the Buffs or the RIRs, but not sure which.
 
My BO lays a very light brown egg. More of a taupe color. My RIR hasn't layed yet, so I don't know.
 
I do notice that my RIR's eggs are a little darker brown than my buff Orps. eggs are. The Orps. eggs are a light, cream color (not a true brown) and my RIR's are light brown.
