Easter Eggers and eggs changing color?

[Cuppercake]

My ladies have just started laying 2 weeks ago. I have 3 RIRs, 2 black sex-links, and 4 EEers (Ameraucana, Araucana, who knows, they're from the feed store).

Sunday I found a blue egg. Then I didn't find another blue egg all week. I kept them in Thursday and Friday to make sure maybe they weren't laying in the woods (they get to range a few hours a day, usually). Still no blue eggs. But I've gotten four "pink" eggs that don't look like the ones that I'm guessing came from the RIRs.

Can a chicken that lays a blue egg just up and lay a pink one? Or is that hen just not laying regularly yet? (They JUST started laying 2 weeks ago.) Maybe I have 3 pink-egg-layers and 1 blue-egg-layer.

Thanks!

I am by no means an eggspert!!

I have read on here though that your hen will lay the same color their entire life. Once a blue egg layer, always a blue egg layer!! I have 2 green egg layers. They are a year old and always laid green. I wish I had a pink egg layer.

They never change colors, but the eggs will lighten up over time.

She'll probably lay soon. She probably was just a little tired!

Different chickens

If you're only getting one pink a day, probably just two pullets laying so far. EE's are such fun, I can't wait to see what colors mine end up laying.
