Re: How many eggs can a chicken lay per day?

With modern husbandry and a controlled environment, a leghorn, an egg 
laying type chicken, can lay an egg about every 26 hours for about two 
weeks a a time with a few days of rest in between.  An adult leghorn hen 
should be able to lay approximately 250 eggs in a year.  The production 
however is dependent on the diet, light control, and temperature control.
