Bought this barnie hen from poultry sale not sure how old she is her wattles and comb is quite red but is not laying any eggs. Wondering weather I bought a rather old hen or what anyone can tell me how old she might be pls??
I'd say she may be a few years but can hardly tell from picture. She may be young with wattles just coming in or they may just be small. Look at her face. If she has a droopy face she's likely to be older. And look at her feet. Older birds won't have smooth feet like a young one. (Depending on the bird) old chicken feet can look kinda gnarly They'll have broken/dead scales gunk between them and the claws look a bit worn.
