Same Chicken??

[RanchRichey]

So I have one older EE who I know laid the egg on the bottom and 2 new EEs that are 19-20 weeks old, that I don’t think are laying yet, but the egg on the top is slightly different (shape and hue)
I am leaning toward natural variation from my older EE, as I don’t think the first egg from one of my new girls would be this big, (and I am hoping for more color variation from my new layers) but what do you guys think? *They were laid on 2 different days*

How big are the eggs? If you can measure them then I that would help

Do the pelvic bone check to see if the new ones are laying. My first chickens all laid very large eggs for their first eggs- like regular large sized eggs. I didn’t even realize “pullet” eggs were supposed to be smaller until my second set started laying and there was a big difference. Also it is possible it could be a double yolker. I’ve had a couple girls lay doubles as their first eggs.

Neither of the new EE’s pelvic bones seem “ready” some separation, but not like my known layer.

If the bones are still closed then I would say yes it’s the same bird. Variation does happen.

The bigger egg is 64 g and the egg in question is only slightly smaller at 54 g​

That would be my guess too.
Especially if she just came back int lay after molt and winter break.
