How often do chickens lay 2 eggs a day? I have a Frizzle Cochin bantam hen that often presents 2 eggs a day. Or maybe one of the roosters is laying the second one :-) I've studied all the other bantams I have and they are all crowing and look like roosters. So I can only assume she is a highly productive hen but does this often happen?
 
I read somewhere it takes something like 23 hours for an egg to pass from the ovaries to the cloaca. So it would be possible for two eggs in a day but not that often. Unless somehow your hen has managed to speed the process up somewhere.
