Today for the first time I collected three eggs from the hen house. I took a photo:

This is my first green egg! Where's my ham? LOL I have an Americana girl but she's a mix (she has feathered legs) so we didn't know if she'd lay green eggs or not.
So, I have three girls that are old enough to lay, they were hatched last May and some or all have been laying for awhile now. I also have two RIR and one Barred Rock but they are only 4.5 months old. The three older girls are a New Hamshire Red mix, an Australorp and an Americana X. Any idea which egg belongs to which hen? The lighter colour egg is brown, but very light. It varies allot in colour and size from day to day. The other day there was a huge almost white egg. It's always bigger than the dark brown egg. I usually get 2 eggs a day.
Thanks
Donna
