My Buff Orp has been laying for about three weeks, and she has very light brown eggs. This morning her egg was VERY light colored almost cream colored. I feed her layer feed and she gets lots of treats and free-ranges all day...is there something she's not getting nutrition wise? Is something wrong? I hope not, she's my favorite.
 
Eggs will get lighter the longer they lay. It is most noticable in the dark brown egg layers (marans, penedesenca, etc)
I have even seen the egg after skipping a day be a little darker . Its natural, nothin to worry about.
