I got my first rubber egg not sure what chicken did it

So I have 5 hens 3 of them I raised they are around 19 weeks old (Rohde island Red, buff orpington, amaraucana) The other 2 hens I purchased from a woman in Phx, she said they are both layin. One is a jersey giant and one is a polish hen. The woman told me they are around 6 months of age. Its been almost 2 weeks and only my Jersey giant has layed.She layed every 2 days. She was due to lay another egg this evening, but when I went out to the coop and check for eggs I found a rubber egg! I figure it came from my Jersey giant. I wasn't alarmed or anything, until I found another a few hours later. So my question is can a chicken lay an egg that soon after? Or could it be one of the others?

Chickens on their natural schedul lay an egg ever 24.5 to 25 hours.

Right that's what I understood also. I didn't know if maybe because it was a abnormal egg if she could produce another one that soon. I'm hoping I have a new chicken that's laying

I'd bet that one of your other birds has started to lay.
They are often soft shelled eggs at onset of lay....sometimes more than one in a day from the same bird.
It can take up to a month or so before laying becomes 'normal'.

I really hope so out of 5 hens I only have one laying. The anticipation is insane
