Daisy started laying about two weeks ago and after a short break of 3 days, she started laying on a daily basis. Saturday, Sunday, Monday... and today, Tuesday, I found TWO eggs. I checked the nest because I'd seen her sitting, and one of the eggs was warm. The other was cool, though. She'd laid her last egg right around 24 hours earlier.
So, either 1) I missed an egg on one of her "days off" -- which is unlikely, because I hunted and hunted 2) she laid two eggs in one day or 3) one of my Australorps started laying.
I guess I'll know for sure in a few days, if I keep getting two eggs, but what the hey, I thought folks would like to join me in speculation.
For whatever its worth, Daisy is a black sex-link.
