Mine are hybrids. They have been bred for maximum egg production so I get about 260-280 eggs per year! They are about 2 years old now and still going strong. I'm expecting them to decrease this year. They do tend to burn out more quickly than a purebred hen but I keep them with plenty of grit and oyster shell and extra minerals in their water. I also have Warren hens that are also a hybrid from the Rhodes island red chicken and they lay about the same but I have found they seem to decrease laying after about 18 months.
