Yeah your right cause now she lays in the morning ever since her "day off" thanks you i will check out the videoShe's taking a day off.
It takes about 25 hours for an egg to form, a new ova is released shortly after an egg is laid.
A new egg could be laid approximately every 25-26 hours, so an hour or so later every day until one is laid late in the day and another ova might not be released until the following day, so a day off. BUT..very hen is different and only time will tell what a particular hen/pullets schedule might be. Not every hen/pullet lays every day..some only lay a few a week.
I think it's explained in this excellent video, which is worth watching regardless:
