I went out to a ranch for work Hens there 5 yrs old Laying eggs daily getting grit,shell Dried and fed back , Organic Feed and Even having new chicks for the ranch this was A Mix group of hens rooster was 5 yrs old as well. when the new chicks came every one was shocked .

YUPP the old boys and girls still have it in them all bought from murray mc murray and this yr they are doing it again,

sure some lay every other day but i fell in love they had it made , and the eggs where a plus.
