Help with breed

[nkeaton]

I haven't been able to get any pics of my new hens as I just inherited them a few days ago. This is a long shot I know...can anyone tell me what breed may be laying these small white eggs? I think it's from my white and black with rather large eyes and she's very skittish. Thats a normal teaspoon and one of my other hens lt brown egg to help show size. Thanks!

There is numerous breeds that lay white eggs and size small. Do you have a better description?

I'm going to get pics of them tomorrow. If it's the one I think it is she doesn't stay facing me long enough to get a good pic or look at comb, earlobes, etc. She does have fairly long legs and looks similar to an Ancona but does not have white earlobes which I've read is common in Anconas. No worries I'll have more detail tomorrow but thanks for responding....like I said I knew it was a long shot

Until you have pics it will be difficult for anyone to guess which one is laying small white eggs. Also since you just got them they will be stressed and I know first hand how that can affect the egg. I've had my hens for 6 months now and recently allowed my broody hen to lay on a hatch of eggs. We now have 7 baby chicks running around and that stress caused my RIR (Rhode Island Red) to lay an extremely small egg. She is now back to laying regular sized eggs but it took me by surprise!!

Enjoy your new brood

Having white ears equals white eggs, dark ears, dark eggs, except EE and a couple others I believe

That's not alway true, There are a number of breeds that prove that statement incorrect.
The Lamona has Red earlobes and lays a White egg, Most Gamefowl breeds have Red earlobes and lay a off White egg.

There are a lot of breeds that have Black earlobes and lay a White/ off White egg.

You did see where I said EE and a couple others I believe. I didn't say I was positive. This has been my experience only and thanks for the infor.

It's all good-I take posts as experience not gospel. Thanks for the input

Is it really a white-white egg, like a store bought egg? The pic looks creamy colored. I thought of my bantam cochins right off, they lay a similar egg.

But, pics will help a lot

Congrats on your new flock!

It is very white. Here are the best pics I could get to night. Hope they are enough to get an ID.
