Same layer or new?

[chickieandpeeps]

For the past month, I have only had one layer from my four 25 week old pullets. My “olive” egger consistently lays light brown eggs. I have only gotten one today and my husband reports our layer was in the nest box earlier today.

Yesterday’s egg was lighter than previous eggs, but today’s is white and speckled. They are pictured in laying order. Could this have come from a new layer?

Could be the same bird, with a glitch in the coating department......or could be a new one.

Here's how to tell......

What other breeds do you have? Could be a different bird or she just could have run out of ink.

I’ve been butt checking them frequently (phenomenal article that I reference often @aart!), and the only other one who is over two fingers is a lavender Marans from Mt. Healthy.

I have 1 OE, 1 CCL, and 2 lavender Marans. The CCL should lay blue, but she’s been stumping me because for 4-6 weeks, she has a full set of comb and wattles, still on the pink side, and her pelvis is at a consistent 1.5 fingers (but I digress ).
