here are some shots of my clowns, there eggs start out bright orange then get darker. but it sounds like they might be? try a few blind shots in the back?

yea our clowns eggs start out bright orange, then get a dark grey color, then youll see little speckles on them... those are eyes, then they hatch.

She usually has another batch ready to lay a few days later, and you can tell when she is prego, very large belly.

she will only lay eggs in 1 spot, not multiple, the male usually stands guard and only eats what flows by the nest. she on the other hand eats like a pig while getting ready for the next batch of eggs.
