I have one barred rock and four easter eggers that are of laying age. The rest of the girls are only 14 weeks old. So far only one EE and the BR have started laying in the past 1.5-2 weeks. This morning I cleaned the coop, and a few hours later found two brown and one blue eggs all in one nest box. Is it more likely that my barred rock laid two eggs today, or that I have an Easter Egger that lays brown eggs?
 
Can always check vents and pelvic points to see if your other EE is laying.

Vent:
Dry, tight, and smaller - usually not laying.
Moist, wide, and larger - usually laying

Pelvic Points 2 bony points(pelvic bones) on either side of vent:
Less than 2 fingertip widths apart usually means not laying.
More than 2 fingertip widths apart usually means laying.
