I can’t tell if it’s just one of my cinnamon queens laying eggs or both, I have Cayenne (who I know is laying) and paprika, not sure about her, I got two different colored eggs, one is brown with white speckles the other is brown with darker brown speckles, are they both from Cayenne? Cayenne is the one looking in the window and in the second pictures paprika is the darker cinnamon queen, not the black EE

I'd also say that different hens are laying those eggs.
Shape/size is sometimes a decent indicator. We find among our hens that the shape is the easiest giveaway to which hen laid the egg, supported by color variations second...

Hm, maybe my hens are weird then, they rarely ever lay the same shape egg and the color is always lighter or darker then the last

Maybe. We loosely track our hens' laying to the extent that we know who laid what egg at any given time. Why? Curiosity mainly, but it helps too with identifying who the mothers are when incubating eggs.

Are the hens young, possibly pullets? Young hens' early eggs are not always consistent...

Cayenne and paprika are, cinnamons 5 years old, but she’s possibly a mutt hen so maybe that’s it, I think she’s a black sex-link but she’s a bit more red then most of them

Figured it out, I went outside and saw paprika in the kennel laying an egg, she lays brown with dark brown speckles and Cayenne lays brown with white speckles, but every time I get close to paprika she twitters, it’s so cute
 
Have those gorgeous EEs started laying?
One of them, I think maybe the others have but I can’t find their eggs, so far I’m only getting blue eggs from garlic, the brown and white EE
