Which egg to which bird?

I have five pullets, and I thought they were all laying, but today I got two entirely new eggs.

I have 1 Mottled Java, 2 Jersey Giants, 1 Black Australorp, 1 Bielefelder. All started laying within the last two weeks.

The information I am finding online is brown-brown-brown for all these breeds.

Clockwise from top left, darker with what looks like green mottling, and speckled.

Lighter, no speckles and no mottling (pretty sure this is the BA).

Just like 1, but no speckles.

Very large (only one of these. It might be a fluke)

And today I got two that look pink and are much lighter.

Anyone familiar with these breeds who might be able to help identify which bird is laying which egg?

There can be more variation within a breed than you have from your flock. Not unusual to have the same hen lay different sizes when they first start to lay.
