what time of day do your chickens lay eggs

Pics
I am curious as to what time of day do chickens lay their eggs. And once they do start laying is the time of day fairly consistent. My girls are 23 weeks this week, looking foward to my first egg.
One of my cuckoo marans started laying eggs on the 19 week and has not stopped. She gives me an egg everyday but are small eggs. Then my black copper maran started laying eggs at exactly 20 weeks old and she also has giving me an egg every day these two usually lay between 8:00 am and 10:00. My EE started at 21 weeks old which is last week and she has been pretty good except she is laying around 5 or 6 pm. weird.
 
We have two 20 week old hens, a RIR and an EE. Haven't checked the boxes in two days (about 52 hours) and look what I found today! FIVE eggs in two days! All in the same nesting box. Beautiful hard shells, bright orange yolks-- very small eggs. Wow were they good! Could a new laying hen lay more than an egg a day? Maybe I missed one!

Btw these are the FIRST eggs! I was like a kid at Christmas!
 
2 of my 4 ISA Browns started laying at 17 weeks!!

And one ISA 's first egg was a double yoker.

My Barred, Black Australorps, Speckled Sussex, & Silver Lace Wyn haven't laid yet.

All of my cheeps will be 18 weeks tomorrow.
