What was the latest time you had an egg laid?

Just curious, because my RIR laid an egg about 5pm the other day ..


Edited to rephrase the title

It is light here now until almost 9pm. I think the latest I have seen someone in the nest box was around 6pm. After then I just get some really early morning ones like 6:30am from my RIR.

I have two later in the afternoon/evening layers. Not uncommon to have the little banty hen lay her egg in the 5pm or 6pm hour. She's usually the last of the day.

5 or 6 I think? I only have one layer now

but she kind of gets later and later every day, then she skips a day and the next egg comes in the morning. Rinse and repeat

About 5:00, at a time when that was only a little less than two hours before dark. It's only happened a couple of times that late. Mine are usually done by 2:00--usually a lot earlier, with an occasional 4 o'clocker.

everyday they lay an hour later until they skip a day and resets the laying clock, they lay all times of day

4:30pm was my latest, and she was in the nest, anxious to get it done. Other than that, I've had "roost eggs" (shell-less variety) happen around 7:30-8pm. But those shell-less kind are inadvertent and accidental, so they don't really count. Normally, if I don't have an egg by 3 or 3:30pm from someone, I am pretty certain she'll wait until the next day.
