How long do hens lay eggs for?

[jette]

Wow - I had no idea chickens could live 15 to 20 years and now I know they won't be producing eggs very long. I am already attached after 2 weeks and they are my pets NOW, so I will have them for life. As one dies, I will get a younger one who will lay eggs I suppose, or just buy eggs again? hahahah

Im in this for the long haul... I love my hens, they pay for their own nature smart feed which isnt cheap as well they feed us, im not going to get rid of any of my girls when they get old, they have given so much already and.have fed alot of people.
