Yes, a hen can lay eggs without eating layer pellets, but its egg production may be affected. Layer pellets are specifically formulated to provide the essential nutrients, such as calcium and protein, that hens need for optimal egg production. If hens do not receive a balanced diet, they may still lay eggs, but the quality and frequency of egg-laying could decline, and they may face health issues over time. Providing a varied diet that meets their nutritional needs is important for their overall well-being and egg-laying capacity.

Do layers pellets contain chicken?
Most of the Layer pellets I've checked do not contain any chicken. Typically they contain wheat, rice, other grains , minerals (probably to help offset the acidity of the grains) and sometimes soy or canola. Probably the worst thing about layer pellets is that many contain chemicals to color the egg yolk yellow and probably some genetically modified ingredients, particularly soy & canola. I saw a documentary program some time ago where some chickens were fed pellets that contained up to 50% chicken manure! Don't know if this is still happening but if it is, I wouldn't want to be eating anything from those chooks. Your chooks should do OK on layer pellets provided they also have plenty of clean water and vegetable scraps.
