Egg laying

[dah1996]

What's the average age of hens to lay eggs does it depend on breed? I've never had Dominique's before and don't know if it's any different than those island reds,and my Dominique's were born last November

Egg laying has everything to do with the breed. A leghorn seems to lay every single day (sometimes twice), while a cornish lays fewer eggs

Average age is 5-6 months, some earlier, some much later.
