Which chicken laid this egg?

[Eggscoozme]

I have an assortment of chickens. One of they them lays an egg everyday, and it is 82-91g - NEVER a double yoker. How can I tell which one it is? Is that even possible to figure out? It is a medium brown color egg, and here are the possible brown egg sources:

2 Naked neck Turken
3 Buff Orpington
1 Isa Brown
1 Barred Rock
1 Red colored chicken: Production Red or Red Cross
1 Black Star
1 White Orpington

I'm gonna say ISA based on our experiences. We have some that rarely miss a day. And, on occasion, left wondering "how did that come out of a chicken?"

I hope you are right. I was thinking Isa's, too, so I bought more!

Hope we're right!

I asked this question, because I thought, a couple years ago, someone figured a way to be able to tell who laid what, but forgot how they did that. Oh well, I'm shooting for the Isa's! TSC says they are the egg laying machines over RIR, hands down.

Apparently you can put different coloured food dye on their vents and the eggs will have colour streaks on them. Never tried it so I’m not sure it works, but I can’t think of any harm it would cause besides being messy and a little weird haha.

Why even do that?

I think THAT was what they did, too!

To find out who was laying the whopper egg. Then, I'd get more of THAT breed. I have a feeling it was my Isa. If I had dye, I could test my theory.
