A spent hen is a term used for a hen who is past her prime egg laying years. Most chickens start to lay eggs at about four to six months old. They peak at about eighteen to twenty months of age and although they will continue to lay eggs up to about three years old they may not lay daily. Spent hens are often fattened up with a diet of corn for a few weeks and then used for meat

well after about 2 years a hen will not normally produce as many eggs. They are called a "spent hen" in the industry due to this. But if you hen is going through molt she might also not be producing. If they are getting the right diet though they can produce for a long time. I had a 10 year old hen that laid eggs until she was 10 and pretty reguarly until 6. So hope that helps yah.
