Those all look like wellie eggs. They can lay heavily speckled eggs to solid colored eggs. Their first few eggs can be lighter and they darken as the pullet adjusts to laying. I seriously doubt your GCM is laying yet.Egg Mystery:
Six days ago I found the first egg and thought it was a Welsummer egg. We just checked for eggs again and found three more, two on the floor and one in the same nest box as the one six days ago. We haven't checked everyday but we have checked and never noticed the eggs in the floor until today.
Now I am wonder ing I have two layers or if all the eggs are from the 18 week old Golden Cuckoo Marans. As you can see there is paint being laid on these eggs, increasing in coverage. Does a Wellie do this Kelly?
We looked at the GCM tonight and her comb and wattles are very small but are red. Opinions?

Everything that could go wrong did go wrong. I forgot to add the eggs until 3 or 4 minutes into baking, burned my hand taking it out to add the eggs, then it stuck to the pan, then I didn't wait long enough for it to cool before I started icing. Yeesh.
