Hehehe.....thanks Paul.
Other than dumb luck, I couldn't figure it, supposedly it isn't possible (technically speaking)to lay two eggs in a day yet half my birds had done so in a day. Had begun to wonder if it was possible that all their cycles had coincided (or danged near it) and the 24-26 hour cycle had pressed up too close to dark the previous day. In light of that, the big question was....."is it possible they HELD an egg due to it getting too dark the day before?" (Hey, it's a theory, I don't even know if it's possible they are entirely cognizant of the process and able to "control" it in such a fashion....but it's all I could come up with, not being an EGG-o-thologist.) That couldn't have been for all of them though as I got 5 or 6 eggs the day before. So there was my confusion. Anywho, thanks for the positive feedback and enocouragement! I am grateful for your response.
I enjoy your website and will keep up....who knows? Maybe I can help someone else in turn? have a great one!
