I'd guess the ISA.

Check the pelvic bone spacing to determine which hens are laying. 3 fingers space - for sure laying, 2 fingers space - perhaps laying, less than that - not laying.
Here's how:

To find which bird is laying which egg, will likely have to stalk the nests and 'catch them in the act'.
 
I would say to put food coloring on their vents to se who lays what. All those are brown egg layers and it would be difficult to tell them apart.
 
I would guess ISA. You can use different color food coloring gel on each birds vent to see who is laying.
