Updated pic of my 3 hens they seem very happy and have been great to me,The last 3 days I have got 5 eggs each day and one of my hens has gotten broody and sits on them,So my question is is it normal got hens to lay 2 eggs a day?

oh really?iv heard of them but I'm gunna have to do some research lol,Thanks man apreciate it,The other egg look to be the same color but it's hard to see so I'll go get some pics and post them.
Got our first eggs today! I haven't touched them yet but one has a big dent in it so I think they squished it,it looks kinda rubbery though,And the other looks better,Should I put the good egg in the nesting box?they layed right on the middle of the coop,also is that normal coloring?
And here is the 3 hens we decided to keep,will be a year old next month,I posted the pic in the identification thread and everyone that commented said they look to be 2x black sex links and 1x Easter egger and I'm happy with that!
Also I picked up some pellets today from a local Co op hopefully you guys can tell me if this is ok food for them?it's labeled country acres Layer,The label says 16%
Since it's a rainy day I finally went and got some pultry nipples and made my chicken waterer while we are stuck in the house.I decided to use a 3 gal bucket instead of 5 since we only have 3 hens.its currently hanging from the ceiling while the silicone cures lol
Hey everyone just figured I should start a thread for my coop and run build,It's still a work in progress but is working great so far,I still have to build nesting boxes,Finish the roof and paint (the major work left).It's been a fun build for me and my boys,We decided to stick with just 3...
