There is no really proven answer. Age and diet seem to have have a lot to do with it. Chickens tend to start laying at 6 months to 1 year old. Not sure about other hen species. If a hen (chicken) seems to just stop laying I change her diet and try different types of greens. Some seasoned farmers once told me to hang cabbage in my hens cage. Hanging it in pecking range. This sometimes works, but always makes the hens more active and seemingly happier.
