Does this look like it's from the same bird or a different one? *picture included*

I'm down to 3 Silkies. One is definitely a hen and the other one is definitely a rooster. The 3rd one is a mystery. It wasn't crowing and it wasn't laying. My Silkies refuse to go in the chicken house so they sleep in a pile in their yard (which is secure) under the chicken house. This means my hen lays in the yard and I have to search for her egg. She doesn't lay consistently yet so I do my best everyday to search for them. The other day I found 2 eggs similar to these buried under pine shavings and I figured I just missed an egg the day before. But today I found 2 more buried (the one was really buried and if I wasn't raking up the shavings I would have never found it. Do you think the other chicken started laying since the second egg is darker and the shape is off? Could the same chicken have laid both of these eggs? Thanks!!!

interesting yes its possible it could have came from the same hen and the pigment just didn't get on to the egg for what ever reason. I have silkies too and most of my eggs are pigmented like the egg on the right. could have been just a fluke its not pigmented. if you post a picture of the silkie in question perhaps we can give our opinions on the sex. if that helps?
