Hi so I have been getting mostly this color eggs. I want to downsize my flock so I need to know witch ones are laying. They are large in size and they are a deeper color than shown on the pics. Thanks!

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.

I'd guess the ISA.

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.
