Many years ago in the UK I had a Moorhen nest with 27 eggs.

I would like to ask members if anyone knows of the record number of eggs
laid by a Dusky Moorhen. I recently saw a nest at Gympie and when the
bird flew, I counted 17 eggs! This seems quite extraordinary. I have
photographs of both the bird on the nest and the eggs.
