Any place they feel safe and secure, usually in laying boxes

Hens lay eggs in nests, and usually they their eggs in nests that already contain eggs. Some hens will move eggs from neighboring nests into their own nests. In captivity and at farms, farmers will use dummy eggs made from various materials and even Golf balls so the hens will lay eggs where the dummies are placed this way their laying off eggs can be controlled. Hens can be finicky and will try to lay eggs in the same location and some may even share nests. If they are crowded, hens will lay eggs on top of their own eggs and even those of other hens.

by the way your face is the dummy
