What is the best food for hens?
From the time the new chicks leave the shell they should be given a chick starter food. This is available either in medicated or un-medicated form. The chick starter is small pre-ground and easily digestible. At about 2 months a small amount of chick grower can be added and increased each day until the birds are off the chick starter and eating only the grower. At about 4 months and close to laying the hens should be given layer mash/pellets to prepare them for egg production. They can stay of the layer feed for the rest of their lives unless the extra cost of layer is prohibative (about $2.00 per 80lbs). Hens will survive quite well on chicken scratch but during the prime egg years they need the extra calcium and proteins in the layer feed.
Can the process of egg laying for hens be speeded up?
Through genetics yes. Cross breeding with prolific producers and genetic enhancements will create hens that lay multiple eggs in a 24 hour period. Whether that will be acceptable to the general population as it is today is a totally new question. As for the hens in the backyard flock, a good laying mash, lots of natural light and a contented flock will get you one egg per day from each hen. This depends on the breed you have since no matter what you do, a silkie or a cornish game hen will not lay more that a few per week. A leghorn or a Rhode Island will produce daily.
How much freedom do barn hens have?
Barn hens are limited to the space available within the structure of the barn or facility in which they are housed.
