I’ve heard chickens can lay eggs every 1-2 days. It baffles me that something so (relatively) big can come out of them so often. How do they produce so many with such limited internal space? How many are developing in them at any given time?

They’re selectively bred to produce way more than their bodies can handle, look into it, it’s absolutely terrible on them, they die from bone problems very often, and chicken farmers are fully aware of this, it’s marked as inconsequential.
about 12x as many as they did before we intervened.
Chickens slaughtered for meat are also the same thing, they’re gorged and bred to grow bigger than their bodies can handle, there are many instances of these chickens not even able to contain their own organs in their bodies or stand up.
