How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

A whole bunch!!! 27 in this coop--3 separated, of which I know only one Welsummer is laying.


Mystery of the light cream colored egg is somewhere in this list:
--6 Golden Comets (big, nice dark brown eggs)
--2 Red Star (guessing they'll be the same...)
--1 Barred Rock (?)
--4 White Leghorn (white)
--1 Brown Leghorn (white)
--2 Olive Eggers (hopefully olive eggs?!?)
--2 Black Copper Marans (hopefully really dark?!?)
--4 Pioneer/Dixie Rainbows (think they're laying--dark brown, big eggs)
--2 Lavender Orpingtons (?)
--1 Buff Orpington
--2 Welsummer (already laying--super dark, speckled)


I have a white Plymouth Rock that lays eggs that color. My Golden Comets lay in varying shades of brown- light to dark.
 
Yesterday was my first 3 out of 5 day. My girls are all coming up on 7 months old. Miss Delaware started laying in November, the 2 Black Australorps came on late November early December and my EE gal just came online I the past week. However, I did catch my Papillon ***** guarding the prettiest mint blue egg the other day, and yesterday she visited the coop a couple times. I'm thinking I have a dog who likes eggs. Will be fencing everyone apart soon.
 
4 eggs out of 5 hens today. I just noticed that my word for female dog was starred out. That made me go, "huh?" for a second. Anyhow, the EE has laid 2 days in a row, and the Delaware is a production machine. So, since 1/7, I've received 16 gorgeous eggs from my 5 girls.
