My RIRs usually produce a nice reddish brown colour. But today I collected the eggs and found a really dull coloured egg. It’s still the same size as normal. I’m hoping that my RIR is healthy. Does egg colour difference mean they may be unhealthy?

Pigment is applied during the laying process. Likely not quite enough pigment was applied. Sometimes as a laying season progresses pigments can become a little lighter as well.
It's not really something I would worry about unless she's acting different. (lethargic, not eating/drinking, etc.)
Ok thank you! Just wanted to make sure.
