A chicken's laying season is all year long, although may slow down in the winter time due to shorter days. If the hen lays enough eggs where she feels there are enough for a 'clutch', her laying will stop as she prepares to incubate and hatch her brood, which generally takes 21 days. After a few more weeks, she will start to lay eggs again.
