What do you mean need? Hens need laying pellet, unless they are still babies, then they need starter feed. Water is also essential. You can buy dewormer at your local pet store. Most of the time you can add the wormer to the water. They need a coup to lay eggs and stay in at night. they also need a laying box... fill it with hay or dead grass. Works great!
