I wonder if she'll keep laying or if that was just a fluke. Are you sure about her age?

it's fine! Of course you should eat it. It's normal for eggs to be miss shapped, unevenly colored, soft shelled, shells that are even hard to crack, spotted etc...they're different all the time And once in a while you may get an egg without a shell! My daughter loves those haha. Anyhow all chickens are different and have different colors and shell types oh and the size is very normal too. They will be small eggs for a while and gradually get bigger. They're called pullet eggs. Before the hen is a pro-layer they'll be smallerFirst egg today, my little brother texted me about it since I live about 8 miles away from where I have my flock . He texted me, "the egg is so tiny and small. " Since it was "National Skeptic Day," I didn't believe him. My flock are only about 12 weeks old . I am not sure which one of my three pullets laid the egg. My little sister, after coming back from school in the afternoon, told me she heard one of the chickens choking very loud or something this morning lol . She went to check on them but didn't see an egg, ... hmm how odd. I think by choking loud she meant cackling, since I had to show her a youtube video of how it sounds and she said, "yea kinda like that." Too bad I missed it LOL I looked up why the egg was small with little brown specks and apparently my dad who has lived in a farm back in the 40's assumes she may be sick or not eating well. But the shell is hard and not soft like some pics I have seen of first eggs. Here is an image in comparison to grade A eggs from the super market. Should I eat it ?
