Hen Laying 2 Eggs- Danger?

I just read that I should be worried if I have a hen laying 2 eggs per day, which I do have. The person writing said that she would be worried the chicken would develop egg peritonitis.

Has anyone had a hen who laid 2 eggs a day, and, if so, did she develop egg peritonitis or egg binding, and die? If so, how old was she when she died?

Thanks for your assistance,

Clare
I have 5 chickens and 1 turkey hen, and in the last 48 hours we collected 40 eggs, only 2 of those were turkey. And 2 others were aracauna (blue green) so the other 4 had 36 eggs in 2 days... OK perhaps some were missed but even if 1/2 , would mean 4 chickens laying 18 eggs in 2 days... this is a bit odd...
