Help! Who is laying this egg?

[JenaRN]

Keep in mind that the eggs will possibly get bigger!

I think they have gotten just a little bit larger now but not much...some of them are getting darker, too.

I am choosing the BO on the far right.

But unless you actually see the hen laying the egg it will be almost impossible because the eggs from those four birds can be very similar.

I am nearly certain the BO on the far right is one of them laying. I have 2 laying now because I get 2 eggs every other day. Also, this might sound silly but when I go to pet her she squats down and sticks her wings out, like she is going to lay an egg. It's really strange and she never did this before. Could that be a sign? I'm about to install a camera in the coop. Haha!

My BO started squatting around the time she started laying as well...I thought she as feeling flirty and inviting the rooster, but I found out that it's her saying your dominant over her (that's what I was told on here). But it's the funniest thing though when I'd come near her she'd just go frozen with her wings out and butt up in the air

It's also a sign that they're either already laying or getting ready to lay.

We live on a river and sometimes people cut through our yard on their way back to the road. I told my husband I was going to move the security cameras into the nest boxes so I could see who's doing what LOL. He looked at me like I'd lost my mind

maybe I have.

UPDATE! Those in the photo are in fact, Silver Seabright eggs!!! I can't imagine an egg that large coming out a tiny bird like them, but I caught them laying so no denying it now. They are actually VERY good layers. All of my girls are now laying and I have caught all of them except my Welsummer laying so I know who is laying what eggs now. Yay!!

Thank you to everyone for the advice/help!

My BO hens all started out laying small light colored eggs and now lay a regular sized egg which is brown. Sometimes the eggs are a rosy brown and sometimes dark brown like my BPR .

My BO's lay a pretty dark brown egg that is much larger than the eggs in the picture. I never would have believed it if I hadn't caught each bird laying at one point. Chickens are amazing! I'll try to get a picture of the eggs my BO lay and my marans. They are gorgeous.
