There is no set time of day a chicken will lay an egg. Some prefer morning while others will lay just prior to roosting in the evening. A small upset/fight in the yard can effect the time of day/night the bird will lay also. Frightened hens will put off laying for hours past their normal laying time if anything disturbs them.

Is it normal for a chicken to lay on one egg?
Yes, it is normal for a chicken to lay one egg at a time. Chickens typically lay one egg per day, and they will often lay their eggs in a nesting box or some other designated spot. If you only see one egg at a time, it is likely because the chicken has not yet laid another one.
How many eggs do battery chickens lay in a day?
Each individual chicken lays only one egg per day maximum. There are no breeds of chicken that lay more than one egg in a 24 hour period and many breeds do not lay even that fast.
If it takes a chicken a day and a half to lay an egg and a half how many days does it take for two chickens to lay two eggs?
1 day
Can a white hen lay a white egg one day and then a brown egg another day?
I don't believe so. I can normally tell what chicken layed what egg by what color it is.
If a chicken and a half can lay a egg and half in a day and a half how many eggs can be laid by two dozen chickens in two dozen days?
Each chicken takes a day and a half to lay one egg. So in 24 days each chicken can lay 2/3 of 24 = 16 eggs. There are 24 chicken so, in all, 24*16 = 384 eggs can be laid.
