How long a free ranger will lay eggs depends first on the breed of chicken, production hens will lay more eggs for a longer period of time than dual purpose, rare or heritage breed birds.
After breed of hen then environmental issues such as housing, time of year, nutrition, day light length all play an important part in laying eggs.
But generally, assuming you have adult heritage birds you should see them laying eggs beginning in February or March and ending in October or November each year.

Why do battey farm chickens grow faster than free range chickens?
Battery farm chickens grow faster than free range chickens because they are usually a heavy meat breed to begin with, are hardly given any room to move and thus burn very few calories, and are kept awake for many of the nighttime hours so that they will eat more feed. Free range chickens, on the other hand, have an easier existence, in which they can roam all over; thrive on a diet that includes grass, bugs, and grain; and sleep while it is dark out. Typically, battery farm chickens in commercial operations are unhealthy and many will die or be culled from the flock long before harvest time, when they are only a few months old. Conversely, when protected from predators, free range chicken flocks are extremely healthy and have a very low, almost imperceptible death rate during the first few years of their lives.
