If she is less than about six months, she's a pullet. When she begins laying, she's a hen. If she's older than three or so years and stopped laying, she's 'gone dry.' If she's between six months and two years and she's never laid she's barren and should be culled. At that point she's called 'dinner.'
Hope this helps
