Isn't It Too Early For Eggs?

I got 6 eggs today and. 5 yesterday. Not bad I only have 9 hens so we are about all laying everyday. So my blonde hen peeps is a hussy she bred with the bronze/chocolate male today and more I thought about it both those males were by her at the same time when the opaline bred earlier this week. So not sure how that's going to change the eggs she lays since I won't know who's fertilized which egg.
 
I'm getting annoyed with my flock of young Chocolates and Blondes too at this point. I bet once they finally start to lay they will lay all the way thru Nov/Dec and I won't get much of a hatching break this season, lol. (My Hens usually quit in Sept after 3+ months of sweltering Summer heat finally wears them out). I added 4 more of my young Chocolate Hens to another flock a couple months ago, and a couple of them might have just started laying because I am getting a couple more smallish eggs each day. I can't tell who is laying in that flock tho... I never catch them in the act and they all have that "who me?" look when I go out to collect eggs, lol. All 14 Hens in that flock have well pronounced bustles... so it could be any of them. I guess I could catch them and drop some food coloring in their vents to see who is laying. Anybody wanna help?

I value my life, so I won't be volunteering for that activity!
