These are pullets or young chickens that are raised by the hatcheries to near time to produce the first eggs. Hatcheries provide food and protection through the first three months of a chicks life so the farmer who orders them does not have to. Point of lay hens command higher prices than new chicks and are costlier to ship. Farmer who order these hens expect them to start laying eggs within a week or two of arrival at the farm.
