How big is a silver phoenix egg???

[cjeanean]

Okay, we either got a fart egg or an egg from one of our two small egg layers, a silver phoenix and an ameraucana. One of them has already been laying, cause we've been getting an egg with a more stone-like, greyish tint that we don't have an owner for. Today we got an egg the size of a marble, it's round and cute and brown and I don't know if the Ameraucana laid it as her first egg or if the Silver Phoenix laid it as her first egg. I hope this makes sense, I'm trying to explain it the best I can.

In a nutshell:
Either the Ameraucana or Silver Phoenix has been laying for a while, we don't know which one.

Today we got a tiny egg and I don't know who it came from, so my question is which one of the above mentioned breeds is more likely to lay a tiny brown egg????

I'll be back in a few hours to see if anyone made sense of this rambling on.....LOL...

Thanks!

Phoenix hens do lay a tinted to white shade egg. They can be small at first.

I agree - and my Phoenix's have been laying about 6 months and the eggs really haven't gotten much larger than they started out as. But they aren't brown at all - just kind of tinted.

I never got those iddy biddy wind eggs when mine first started laying - but I've gotten two in the past two months. I still don't know which hen or breed laid them.
