Those look fabulous.

Certain chicken breeds are supposed top lay certain shades and colors. But unless the person selecting which chickens get to breed uses egg shell color as a deciding criteria they can wind up laying about any shade or color. I don't know where you got those Buff Orpington but very few people actually use egg shell color as a top criteria. What you are seeing is very normal.

To be a pure Buff Orpington they should lay a light brown egg, but the reality is that a lot don't. Those eggs do not meet the breed requirement for color but here is nothing wrong or unhealthy about them.

My buffs have eggs that range from medium to light brown and even some are almost cream-colored. Who knows? Maybe it's their mood?? LOL....
