My welsummer usually looks like your solid darker eggs. I love her dark gorgeous eggs. I get one almost every day from her.

I have not actually witnessed the welsummers laying, but I’m not for sure. Just going off pics from the Internet.

Welsummers can lay speckled eggs like that.

They are pretty.

What’s interesting is that the yolks are full size on such a tiny egg.

Very! I love the tiny eggs. They're so cute!

It can take days, weeks, or months for egg to get bigger.
'Pullet' eggs are small.

Good to know. I have 28 chickens and was planning to sell the eggs. Thought they should earn there keep. I’ll hold off for a while. Thanks!

If it doesn't matter to your customers, you can sell them anyway.
When I have a lot of pullet eggs, I make up what I call 'Pullet Dozens' using 18ct cartons.
I usually have 6 'regular' eggs, then add pullet eggs until carton weighs 24-28oz (lg-Xlg).

Good idea. Have to get a scale. Your eggs look like mine. Same color and all.

Just trying to decide what to ask for them. Not organic, but free range.
