Who's egg is this?

[kirstonz]

The egg in question is the top right and second from the right on the bottom. It is really skinny and long! We are debating if it is the same as the egg on the left but just happened to be a weird shape or if it's an egg from our cochin silkie cross (who is due to lay any time now). Any idea? Our girls don't always lay in their nest box and I've yet to scour the barn for the rest of todays eggs (It's storming here!)
TIA

What breeds do you have?

Plymouth barred rock, barred rock, ameraucana, brown leghorn, red sex link, and the cochin silkie cross.

You mention Plymouth Barred Rock and then just plain Barred Rock. Was that a mistake? All Rocks are Plymouth Rocks and barred is the color/pattern variety.

My splash Rock hen lays an egg like that one as well as one of my barred Rock hens, that light beige color with the sheen on it. My other BR hens lay matte finish ones with white speckles on them. It could be one of your Rocks or even your sex link, but it's not your Leghorn.

Nope, just a confused newbie! I was told that's what they were called when I got them. They look slightly different but then also one lays white eggs and the other lays a light brown egg. The second and 3rd egg in the bottom picture.

Hmm, then something is amiss there because a Plymouth Rock should never lay a white egg. The breed is a brown egg breed, though the shades of brown vary. Would like to see those birds of yours. You have me curious now.

The top one lays the 2nd egg and the bottom hen lays the 3rd. The "white egg" is definitely an off white but I'd say closer to a white than light brown?

Your brown leghorn is more than likely responsible for your white egg, as leghorns are a white egg layer.
