How Many Months Does It Take For Poultry Hens To Start Laying,please? by blacq2009(op): 6:15pm On Jun 16, 2016
I started a poultry farm in March. Started with 150 birds for the reason that I'm a novice. They're a week to four months now. At what month/weeks are they expected to start dropping and how many crates will I possibly collect a day with the said number? Old farmers here, please gimme answers. Thanks in advance. Will try uploading their current pics tho.

They generally begin to lay between 18 to 20 weeks. They don't all lay at once, however, so you have to be a little more patient. You should get about 4 crates daily, as they won't all lay every day. I hope other more knowledgeable poultry farmers shed more light. Good luck.
