Possible suspects:
Chocolate silkie-1year- new to the coop
Barred rock- 5 months- has been showing signs of laying
Olive egger-has been laying (brown eggs) but has stopped due to molting. Still molting.
New Hampshire red- 5 months- (I don't think this is hers as she is maturing VERY slowly and is still very small and her comb is still very light. She's shown no interest in nesting boxes)
However, my olive egger always lays in the box and these have been layed in the coop. So I've been leaning towards a new layer or my new silkie girl, even though they are a bit dark. I know the only way to tell is to see it for myself. But just guessing for fun. Here is the egg (on the right) compared to my second year RIR egg (on the left). They're slightly larger then my OEGB eggs.
