Pokemon-go – 5k eggs in the basket changing to 2k eggs

pokemon-go

On several occasions, a 5k egg in my basket has suddenly become a 2k egg. This has happened when both when my basket had an empty slot in it (just after hatching an egg but before getting a new one from a pokestop) and when my basket was full. There seems to be no pattern to which egg changes. I've reported this to Niantic as a bug, but don't know anyone else who has had this happen to them and can't find anything online about other people's experiences with this. Does anyone know what is going on?

There is no evidence of eggs changing types (distances), and several comments echo the experienced shuffling of eggs in the inventory. The most likely scenario is not that the eggs changed, but rather that their order did.

If you dispute this, note the number of eggs of each type (include screenshots) before and after this shift.
