Got my first egg (with a hard shell) on Sunday 10/1, and egg number 2 on Tuesday.
Thes were from my speckled sussex, she just turned 20 weeks.
The egg on the left is egg 2, the smaller one on the right is the first one.

Wow, what a difference a day makes! Brown eggs always look scrumptious to me!

I *think* my second EE laid her first egg today...... from the top roost It was nearly white but had a greenish tint and super thin shelled. My other EE has been laying four about a month and has always had a nice thick shell and beautiful blue. She has always used the nest box - i don't think it was her but i guess it could've been a fluke in thickness, color and delivery?! The second EE hasn't been squatting, but has been interested in the nest boxes recently. Funny thing is, my first EE didn't leave an egg in the nest today. So I guess it could've been her. These chickens are crazy making- hope it's EE #2 and she stops throwing eggs off the roost
