How long does it take for chickens to lay after being moved?

Answer 1

This depends on the individual hen, and the flock itself.

Different hens will react to the situation differently. As soon as the hen finds her place in the pecking order, becomes familiar with her home environment, and finds her favorite laying box she will begin to lay.

It will take more time if your flock is more aggressive, or is large.

Answer 2

depends on the chicken , I've rescued chooks that were dumped on side of the road and , one laid a day later , and then had others just move from one pen to another not lay for a week, it all depends how happy they are- true.

(if your talking about broody chickens tho can be weeks after moving them off eggs, or months if you let them hatch.)
