Different then "Egg"spected!!!!!(LONG)

Okay here we go again!! I posted just recently about my little girl laying a clutch and squashing them in her humid box. Well evidently she is an anomoly! I found the two squashed eggs on the Wednesday of this week. I woke up this morning to find out that she had laid two more!!! THis time in her lay box(YEAH)! They appear to be healthy. So now here's a question. Last month she laid two eggs, and then like 13 hours later laid two more. Now she did it again. IS THIS NORMAL?!?!! I thought that females only laid two eggs per clutch and one clutch per month!! Is she just a freak like her poppa. Will this effect her ability to get her eggs fertilized? Are they twins?! Can her eggs divide? Also the temperature in her cage dropped to 76.5 degrees last night. This will not effect the development of the eggs will it?!!! Thanks all in advance. I appreciate it!!

My girl Nike did the same thing recently. She laid 2 eggs one night, and 2 more the next. I dont think it's too uncommon. Good luck with your eggs, and put a moist paper towel over them if they are dented.
