Keeping Chickens Newsletter

I have 5 hens, all laying, 2 RIR's, one polish banty/standard mix, 2 lakenvelders, one is a mix I think.

I check the nest often sometimes 4-5 times just to make sure I didn't leave one out in the cold to freeze.

Yesterday morning at 7 there were no eggs, through the day they gave me all five. Nice day, this morning I went out early and there was one, RIR egg. I didn't bother till now 3:00 since it is nice out but when I went there I found 5 eggs!

My first grade math tells me :) that is 11 eggs from 5 chickens in 2 days.

Somebody is giving up more than their share. Is it possible that a RIR gave me 2 in one day?

There is absolutely no chance I forgot to count one from the other day the next box was made to protrude beyond the coop and I just put my hand in a grab.

I have never gotten 5 two days in a row, only twice in one week. They are all normal size.

Any thoughts on this, how is it possible for them to lay 2 in one day, and what am I doing RIGHT?

Thanks
