Smaller eggs this week...why?

[Carrie Lynn]

My Bantam Leghorn has been laying for two weeks now.
I think this week's eggs are smaller than her first week's eggs.
Why would this be? Is her diet lacking?

 

[OrloffTom]

While they are still young in their laying stages, it's typical to have a fluctuation of egg size and it will probably be that way until they are quite a few weeks older. I still have some variations and mine have been laying since August.

 

[Mahonri]

Pullet eggs are all over the range in size. ... and you did say she is bantam so they're going to be small.

 

[Carrie Lynn]

Oh, yes, I knew they would be small, she's a little pullet.
It was the fluctuation that had me puzzled. I'm glad to know it's normal.

 

[cmom]

I agree, normal.
