  3. Hen is a domestic egg-laying bird. An adolescent hen, be it of White Leghorn type or the Rhode Island Reds type, starts laying eggs when it is eighteen weeks old. Then, for the next thirteen weeks, it lays the best quality eggs. When hen is thirteen weeks old, it is said to have become an adult hen. This adult hen continues laying eggs for the next sixty-nine weeks. It now attains the age of 100-102 weeks and its egg- laying capacity is extremely low. Thus, it affects the frequency and quality of laying.

    The frequency of laying eggs is one egg every twenty-five hours. Sometimes a hen does not lay eggs but, instead concentrates on incubation of the eggs. Generally, the incubation period is of twenty-one days. The modern hen does not incubate the eggs and some species that do incubate stop the incubation half-way for laying eggs.

  5. It has to go with how much light the hens get.

    They need about 14 hours of light in a day to lay eggs.

    Also they only lay eggs during the daylight hours.

  8. for the baby chicken =]

  9. Hens begin laying at 18-20 weeks of age and a healthy chicken will

    lay about one egg a day.  A hen does not need a rooster to lay eggs

    and eggs are produced in response to day light patterns.  The eggs we

    buy in the store are not fertilized (they don?t hatch).  The size of

    the egg is dependent on the age of the hen.  Older birds lay larger

    eggs.
