What a great idea for a thread!
I’ll post a few of mine.
First one is a Shetland Hen and her egg.

“Partridge” Olive Egger, which is a Welsummer/CCL cross, lays these sometimes speckled green eggs. Color intensity varies from day to day as well.

My Black Copper Marans lays these huge 70-75g speckled eggs. She is on the smaller side for a Marans. The eggs have lightened as the laying season has progressed. Expect them to darken up after her next molt.

Red Cochin Bantam and her eggs.
These are quite small and slightly rounded. Weigh about 30g

Polish and her eggs. Hard to tell in the photo but they are actually very white maybe slightly off-white at most.

And of course Silkies! My birds eggs weigh between 32 to 44 g. Pale cream to tan in color.
