It takes on the average 25 hours for a hen to form an egg once she is in laying season. They DO NOT carry their eggs around inside them for any extended period of time! A good laying hen should produce as a target 305 eggs per year IF she is given adequate lighting.

How young chicks lay eggs?
First off a chick can NOT lay an egg. It has to fully mature into a hen. Basically the eggs get formed by intercourse. Instead of getting pregnant, they lay an egg. After sitting on the egg for awhile (to keep it warm) itwill hatch and their will be your baby rooster or hen. Hope I helped!
