I picked up 3 POL last Thursday and have had 3 eggs from 2 chickens i think.

I have 1 Bluebelle, 1 Sussex Star and 1 Black maran (looks like miss pepperpot)

 

The first egg was biggish 52g light brown with cream specks with a pointed end, the last 2 were small and round about 30g a warm tan/brown colour no specks.

 

I thought the maran would lay very dark egss but i think its a hybrid so not sure. The Sussex star doesnt actually look ready for laying yet she looks the youngest.

Any ideas anyone please?

I don't know about bluebelles but I have a black rock which is pretty much the same thing and they are supposed to lay dark brown eggs.

My which is the same as black rock i believe started laying cream eggs but as the days have gone on they have been getting browner.

just read my post, i meant the same thing as a black maran not the same thing as a bluebelle which is what it looked like I said, sorry

Thanks for replies

I know who it is now! Henrietta (the blubelle) was on the nest when i opened their pophole this morning. She jumped down after a minute and when i went and opened up the coop there was a nice warm, small brown egg in the nesting box that she had just vacated! Just like the ones i have been getting all week. So she is laying just about daily now
