Weird crested gecko egg sizes

Hi all, I just wanted to post and see if anyone could help me out. I have had 3 sets of viable eggs come from my crestie now, with the most recent set being 7 days old. I candled everyone tonight and found some weird size differences between my 7 day old ones and my 38 day old ones... My most recent clutch (7days) is weighing in at 2.0 grams for both, while my 38 day old eggs weigh 1.8 and 1.9 grams. This is the first time I have actually weighed everyone, but I think it's pretty weird that my newest outweigh ones that are a month older. My other eggs are 72 days old and weigh in at 3.3 and 3.5 grams. All 6 eggs are being incubated together, so the substrate is all the same, just coarse vermiculite and water. All of the eggs looked great under candling, the humidity is fine, they are 1/2 buried in the substrate and I check on them daily. Any ideas??

I wouldn't be worried, especially as the eggs look good. there is a certain amount of variability.
