Key points about chicken egg laying:
• One egg per day: Most laying hens will produce one egg approximately every 24 to 26 hours.
•Not always daily: Individual hens may skip days, especially during molting or in extreme temperatures.
•Peak production: The highest egg production usually occurs in the morning hours.
•Factors affecting egg production: Breed, nutrition, housing, weather, and stress can all influence how many eggs a chicken lays.
