Fielder Farm on Instagram: "How long do chickens lay eggs? On average, 10-12 years! At what age do chickens start laying eggs? Typically around 5 months. What factors impact a hen’s egg production? Age, breed, stress & nutrition. I’ve got a few hens that are 7+ years old & they rarely lay eggs! What’s the oldest hen you’ve had that’s still laying eggs?! #fielderfarm #chickensofinstagram #backyardchickens"
