How long do ISA Browns lay for?

[A Chicken Owner]

I have a 14 month old ISA Brown hen. For how long can I expect her to lay for? And what's an ISA Browns average lifespan?
Thanks for any help.

ISA browns are similar to battery hens, if not the same. Well their average life span is about 4 years old. But i have one who is 7 now and another who just recently died who was also 7 and still laid 4 eggs a week. You can expect them to lay lots off eggs until about 2.5 years old and then you will porbably get 4-5 eggs a week off each hen. They will probably not stop laying unless they get really old. I had a 5 year old one who laid 5 a week. They are great layers, but because of that they do sometime gets problems because of it.

I got my first ever ISA Brown pullet chick born on March 12. Well, she JUST laid her first egg today. She is only 14 weeks old!! I could not believe that she laid this perfect little, dark brown egg. She even laid it in the chicken boxes like my last year's hens. Has anyone heard of a pullet laying this early?

Hello. My ISAs seem to have all but stopped laying. They're supposed to be 2.5 years old, now. We've had them for a year. They layed well for 6 months then petered out. Our EEs and Wyandottes are the only ones laying, now. I might get 1 egg every week from 7 Browns!

Are they older than we were told? 3 did pass away randomly, from no apparent causes.

My Isa Brown is AWESOME! She lays an egg EVERYDAY, and it weighs consistently over 82gms with 91gms being her heaviest. NEVER A DOUBLE YOKER, THOUGH! She's UNBELIEVABLE!! This is her first year laying too. WOW!
