I have a young splash maran (non-hatchery) who has laid her first two eggs...both were about average brown eggs (like any other brown egg layer) with a dark speckled patch on the end. I hope they will darken up all over (she hatched from a reasonably dark egg-maybe a 6 on the maran scale). Is it just because these are her first egg and they will get more full coverage color later? I just thought it was weird...I only hope it doesn't mean she will not have darker eggs that right now
Any ideas what's up with her eggs?
