Bruiser laid an egg

Or did she?  There was a light brown egg in the lower nest next to Lou's cute little white egg today.  It had a few little ridges on the shell but is a perfectly respectable egg.  Take a look.
Two golf balls's on the left, Lou's egg, and this other egg, the one at the top of the bunch.  I suspect that it is Bruiser's egg because the three other birds also laid eggs today and she has recently been practicing egg-laying behaviors: hanging out near the nest, laying down the way chickens do in the nesting box, and keeping Lou company while she is in the nest.  Oh, sorry, you want to see it on the scale.  Here goes:
From the size of the egg I wonder if Fitz laid 2 eggs today but Fitz never goes in the lower new nesting box area.  Only time will tell so we will have to give time time.
