How many eggs do hens lay in 1 day?
One per day
Some hens lay only one egg every other day. As few as 80 pear year, as much as 300+ per year.
Twice in the last year I had 16 hens lay 17 eggs in one day. I could never tell who laid the extra egg, but if she laid the first egg at the break of dawn, and then laid the other before going to roost at night, when I gathered the eggs after "tucking them in" there were 17.
Four hens have the potential to lay four eggs but this is not always the case. Old hens will eventually stop laying eggs, sick hens may not lay any eggs and hens even in prime condition may be molting or may just be a slow laying breed. There are many reasons why four hens may not even lay one egg in a single day.
Older birds do not lay peewee eggs. Young hens and smaller breeds of hens lay the peewee eggs and the older the hen, the larger the eggs are. Hens tend to lay more eggs in the spring and summer.
