how many birds do you think i have laying

[jimmythechicken]

we bought a 1 year old hen with 4 chicks about 5 weeks old. she is raising her chicks an started to make nest in our nesting boxes the layed an egg early mornig about 5:30 to 6:00.then skipped next day then had one at about 3 pm the next day.then today we had another egg at 8-9 am.we have comets that are about 11 weeks old do you think i may have 2 birds laying.that is a pretty fast turn around they are all on the smaller side.

No they can lay 2 eggs in one day!! I doubt very seriously that your 11 weeks olds are laying yet!!

her comets are 12 weeks just looked on calender that is what i figured i know the comets will lay as early as 14 weeks but is rare they are pretty big. bigger then the 1 year old hen.lol
