Quality Point-of-Lay Hen

Point-of-Lay Chicken

Point-of-Lay is the phrase we use to describe pullets that are approaching the age when they will start laying eggs. How soon they start to lay eggs depends on their parent stock as well as the condition of brooding and rearing. The age they are expected to start laying ranges between 18 to 22 weeks. Thus an early purchase enables the hens adapt to farm conditions and management practices.

The 12 weeks old point-of-Lay hens has completed all the required vaccinations for their age (you will need to get a veterinarian to complete the remaining vaccinations). They are raised under very conducive conditions and properly managed to ensure they deliver well on your farm.

Most professionals advise new farmers to start chicken egg production with point-of-lay hens. That’s why we have really worked hard to ensure you have peace of mind as a new or old poultry farmer.

At point-of-lay (16 weeks of age), the hens have scaled through the most difficult parts of raising chickens, after being raised by experienced professionals.

Depending on how well you manage the chickens on your farm, we expect our point-of-lay hens to cross 50% egg production within 2 to 3 months and reach over 80% egg production or more within 4 to 5 months after collection from us.

Don’t be fooled or rushed by sellers who are using sugar coated mouth for you, point-of-lay in Chicken starts around 16/17 weeks.
