My White Plymouth Rock lays light brown eggs, cream colored pretty much. She has been laying massive eggs recently so will see if I can find a pic of what my hens layed so you can see for sure what her egg color is.
Yeah I cannot stop thinking that it's a cockerel even though its comb is not that developed and not as pink as the other hatch mate. But the pattern is looking more and more barred😩.

UPDATE: in the first picture, you can see my 2 cockerels, Billy and Alan. Alan seems to be much bigger than Billy but Billy is already starting to want to crow; his dad crowed at 7 weeks. I really hope Alan takes his time to crow like Messi, his uncle? Idk how chicken genetics work, he crowed at...
