Good morning everyone! So a few days ago I mixed my 8- 1 year olds hens (leghorns and sussex) and 3 - 18 week hens (RIR and Barred rocks) into a single coop after weeks of seperate coops. They were joined coops just had wire in between. Up until now I have been getting 7 or 8 eggs a day and I knew mixing them could stress and stop egg production, So this morning I'm all Lalala going to get my eggs, and I find this tiny little egg with 6 big ones. (so cute) So my question to you egg gurus is do you think this is from my 18 week old girls or just a mishap from stress from the older ladies?? Is also appears to have some chalky like speckles on it.

Edit: Just went out to congratulate the young lady and found 2 more full sized eggs so I am sure it is from the 18 week old as all the older ladies have laid. I'm so eggcited! going to throw a egg party haha
