How many eggs can a goldfinch lay?
I've read 300 per year and was told 320 per year per a breeder. One advantage to this breed is they begin laying weeks earlier than other breeds. They're also good pets if you're looking for backyard chickens. They're fairly quiet, don't wander far, and most of the ones we had enjoyed human interaction. The rooster was very human aggressive though.

The commercial breed of white egg laying chickens are called White Leghorns. These chickens can lay almost an egg a day for an entire year (I believe the record is 364 eggs in a year). Occasionally a hen will lay 2 eggs in a day, but will compensate by not laying an egg the next day.
When did chickens start laying eggs?
Female chickens (hens) generally start laying eggs at around 20-24 weeks of age. Some breeds take longer. They don't need a rooster to lay eggs and if you are lucky they will lay an egg per day. Again this depends on the breed, with some chickens laying an egg every few days. They lay less over winter, when they are moulting or when they are stressed.

How would you get a flock of chickens to lay large quantities of eggs every day?
Chickens lay one egg every 28 hours. There is no way to speed this up, so you would have to have sufficient numbers of laying hens to achieve the number of eggs you want per day. Also, chickens go through a period of laying inactivity during which they replace all their feathers. This is the molting process and you cannot bypass this either.
