Is this a silkie or a bantam cochin egg?

[rcstanley]

Found a tiny egg in the egg box. Yay. Now we're trying to figure out whether the silkie or the cochin layed it. I'm thinking it's the cochin since she's got a wattle and comb now. I don't know much about how their eggs compare.
What do you think?

(The brown eggs are small eggs from my gold sexlink pullet)

Cochins lay brown eggs, but Silkies lay white eggs. Your new egg looks white, so I assume that the Silkie laid it.

Here's a better picture. It's a very light tan.

Looks like a Cochin egg to me.

This is an old thread, but for what it is worth, it was a cochin egg. But, my silkie and cochin finally laid at the same time and the eggs look pretty much identical.
