A mystery!!! Do you think I have more than one laying?

[codybird]

The history:

Six black sex links.

Two days away from 21 weeks old.

August 14 got my first egg at 19 weeks two days.
August 15 nothing.
August 16 got my second egg.
August 17 nothing.

Have gotten 1 egg every day since August 18 for a total of 9 eggs.
Nice little brown pullet eggs, good hard shell, smaller than a medium egg, and absolutely identical. They are in a tractor, so I know there is no hidey hole. I check every farkerdowling 1/2 hour, so I know they are not recycling their own.

All eggs were laid between 10:30 AM and 1:30 PM.

I either have an egg laying machine or two of them are tag teaming me like clockwork on alternating days.

What do you think?

Please pardon my use of the term farkerdowling. I was overcome with emotion.

your post made me laugh

I would say you have one laying. Any chance you know the ounce weight of the eggs?

Weather it's one or two laying it's farkerdowling exciting!

The one today weighs 1 1/2 oz. I ate the other evidence.

If you start weighing every one you may be able to come to the conclusion yourself. I wasn't sure if I had one or two laying but every.single.egg is 1.3 oz or 1.8 oz if it's a double yolker. So I decided that it's just one chicken laying.

I'll try it.
