Usually broilers are any left over roosters that you don't want to keep and maybe a few hens that you don't want to keep these would go in the broiler.Your hens you want to keep and get eggs from would be your layers.

A layer is a hen bred specifically for high egg production, where a broiler is bred (and fed) for meat. A broiler is typically quite large and grows off very quickly.
