How Many Eggs Did You Get Today?

While my hens (19 + rooster) were molting a month or so ago, I was only getting 2 or 3 eggs/ day. At the end of Oct., I think, or shortly after, I started adding supplemental light in the evening to give them a 12-hour "day." Lately I've been getting 7 to 9 eggs/ day. Some of my hens are older and may not be laying, and about 5 are pullets that may not have come into lay when the days got so short. We'll see what happens.
 
2 eggs this morning, both nice and clean so they'll be going into the fridge. I rotate eggs, eating the oldest from the fridge and refrigerating the new ones if they are clean and not mis-shapen, which I'll either eat or feed back to the chickens.

Update: 3 eggs, not 2
