1-3 eggs a day

[CluckCluck_SqueakSqueak]

Is it normal for a chicken to lay 1-3 eggs a day? Lavender only started laying abt 2 months ago, and now she’s laying up to three eggs a day. I don’t know if something is wrong or if it’s a mutation or something, but anyone know what’s going on?

No, it is not normal. Is there any possibility that other birds are laying?

Do you have any other chickens?
Or any people that might be putting eggs in the nestbox as a prank?

It is normal for a hen to lay one egg per day, and to sometimes take a day off. It is not normal for a hen to lay multiple eggs in one day, especially not on a regular basis.

I am having the same issue. 2 Wyandotte. 2 Reds. 2 smaller. I'm not sure what breed.
I get eggs every morning and afternoon. Today, I have 8 eggs from 6 chickens. They have been laying a few months. It has happened before, but I thought I had miss counted. I changed up and put the days eggs in a separate carton.
