MJ's little flock

It's roughly x10 to get a chicken's age expressed in human years, right? So Mary is 60-70.

The menopause starts around 10yo.
Very old chickens can get 20yo.
Imo, x5 is more realistic if you follow those facts. But there is more to it. Chickens start laying around 0.5yo. That fiest fit

Do you think there's a difference between bantams and standards? Peggy went through menopause at 4 with no symptoms other than not laying any more.
