6 out of 6 today. I would expect in the next day or so to be down 1-2 because if it takes something like 24-26 hours between eggs, eventually there will be a day of rest. I do have a couple that lay later in the day.
They don't ever lay an egg at night, do they? I've seen as late as 4-5pm.
My girls lay somtimes as late as 11 am but no more
So how many do you have in birds? ages? where are you located all this can make differences

They can start at a wide range of ages even within breed. I've had girls that started as early as 19 weeks and as late as 31 weeks. The 5 I got this April will be 28 weeks tomorrow. 2 have yet to lay, one started at 23 weeks but only laid 3 eggs then stopped. Only the 2 Barred Rocks are laying regularly. Both laid yesterday.Or maybe she’s a late bloomer and getting getting used to laying?
They will occasionally drop one off the roost at night, no idea what time, I'm not out there with them after dark.They don't ever lay an egg at night, do they? I've seen as late as 4-5pm.
That is EXTREMELY unusual, chickens have very poor night vision and usually go to roost as it starts to get dark.Here they are foraging around in the pitch black night--had to use flash in camera.
