OK, so you've got a whole gray egg line that's pretty consistent as far as egg color?
Blue base shells?

 

[gimmie birdies]

White. Frizzles had green probably olive egg, the splash mom had pink/purple.

The gray often comes from a bloom color--Egg looks different when wet.

I leave on the bloom.

I leave on the bloom.

So the grey is bloom?
How does it look if you wet or wash?

 

[gimmie birdies]

with bloom and wet below...

but wait wet is not true color, true color is when dried after washed.

dried, egg w/pink arrow.
