My two lady Doms began to lay this week, but the eggs are almost white. Is this normal?

It can be normal I'm thinking it is because once a chicken starts to lay there eggs are usually differant from eggs they will lay later on. For my Dominique she layed really small eggs now her eggs are bigger. some hens just start off with a light color of eggs. So I would say that's fine.
