Just a little example to show the difference between silkie eggs, size and color. Any breed of hen lays larger eggs each year. Believe me, that cochin egg is very large lol. So an older silkie can give you decent sized eggs. Egg shell color varies hen to hen, and diet can effect that and yolk color as well. During the laying season, hens eggs lose a little pigment with each Egg laid. The color returns next season.
