Not sure on breed but since the egg color changed....it may be a problem in the chicken

Are you sure they were both laying? If the eggs you have in your picture are all of the eggs you've gotten in the past couple days I would say only one was laying until today. It would be normal for the brown egg layer to lay a speckled one here and there at first.

That's what I was wondering...but she dated the eggs

Yes, and I only see one dated for 2 of the days. Maybe 2 dated for the first day. Which, though highly unusual, could be from the same chicken (as a homesteader that I watch on YouTube says to explain abnormal happenings, "she is still figuring it out") or had been missed the day before. Interested to see what the next few days production looks like.

Spray booth glitch, nothing to worry about.
The brown coating can change.
That light egg is not white but light tan almost pinkish.

i have two girls and they lay one egg each a day so i always have two eggs but the one Just caught me off guard because it was a white color and they’ve been laying tan and sometimes they have speckles on them

The colouring of the egg, for all shades of brown, is the last thing that gets done before the egg gets delivered. If you scratch your other brown eggs you will find they are white underneath. Sometimes as aart mentiones above, the spray booth malfunctions and you get a white egg.
