No, they will lay eggs even if they don't have a rooster. If you want chicks however you have to have a rooster.
Yes chickens doo. they start to lay eggs at about 6-8 weeks of age regardless if there is a rooster around or not. if you have a rooster you can not eat the eggs as they may be fertile. in extreem heat or cold chickens may not lay for a few weeks expectialy if the temprature changed quickley. chickens also go cluckey, wich means they want to become a mum. they will sit on the nest if the is a egg there or not and can die if it is very hot. it is then they must be taken of the nest by force. when nesting they can be quite frocious and peek you. they will also do this without a rooster. they are great to have around and make your home feel that little bit better.
Chickens can and do lay eggs without roosters. Roosters are needed for chickens to lay fertile eggs, from which new chickens can hatch. Unfertilized eggs never hatch, but they are sold as food.
No. You do not need a rooster for the hens to produce eggs. Hens will lay eggs with or without the rooster. The eggs you buy in the supermarkets are produced by hens who have never seen a rooster and never will. Roosters are needed for fertilization and are kept on farms to help protect the hens.
Only if the henis either the 'virgin mary' or she is atrifically inseminated.
No it does not. It will still lay eggs, they will just not be fertilized. They will never hatch.
YES! can't have a baby with-out a dad chicken can you! hope this helps from i-luv-my-chickens
No. Roosters are only necessary if you want fertilized eggs. like if you wanted chicks. chickens can have eggs without them
I need to get my brake pads fixed but I do not want to spend too much money. So yeah I think that is what your saying so now I will answer that. Its more then 100 dollars

Nope.
NoAnd it's called "Laying" not "Laying on"Cockerels don't lay eggs, so improve your question by saying "Is there a breed of hen that does not lay eggs.I think he/she was asking if there is a breed of chicken that doesn't go broody, and the answer to that is yes alot of chickens have been bred not to go broody (ex.leghorn)
Most chickens are between 5-6 months old before they start laying eggs and will lay eggs for about two years. Some chickens will start laying at 4.5 months, but this is rare and probably due to hormones in their feed.
Yes All chickens will lay eggs without the need for a rooster. All a rooster does is fetilize the eggs, it does not induce the hen to lay an egg, she will do this anyway.
By laying eggs like chickens
Silkies start laying (usually) between 7-9 months, which is later than most chickens, I have an 8 month old that hasn't started laying yet, but a plus to that is, the later in life your silkies lay, the more eggs you will get, and the more consistent with laying she will be.
Female chickens (hens) generally start laying eggs at around 20-24 weeks of age. Some breeds take longer. They don't need a rooster to lay eggs and if you are lucky they will lay an egg per day. Again this depends on the breed, with some chickens laying an egg every few days. They lay less over winter, when they are moulting or when they are stressed.
They either -Arent old enoughAre going through moltare actually a rooster.

The females from all breeds of chickens lay eggs. Some hens stop laying when they are old, but there are no breeds or varieties of chickens in which the females do not lay eggs. Roosters, as the male of the species, never lay eggs.

Hens lay eggs without a rooster. It is only when the rooster fertilises the female's eggs that he will affect the egg production. (After fertilisation the hen will lay a clutch of fertile eggs which she will hatch.)
No - the chickens do not start laying chicken nuggets after their egg laying days are over.
the chicken will lay eggs each day after you buy it if you take care of it well.
YES,
