How many eggs will sixty hens lay in four weeks?
You want your hens are to the age of laying eggs (which is about 6 months), and your hens are under the age of three years (because when they reach this age, they are past their prime, and lay less eggs). Expect from your hens that every day 80% of the number of hens will be your number of eggs. So with this math, if you have 60 hens that are all in their prime, you can expect to get about 1344 eggs in four weeks.

No. Hens will lay eggs almost anytime. Early morning is when my hens lay most of their eggs. I have had eggs laid well after dark or overnight. egg laying takes place when the hen feels comfortable enough to settle in the nest. Some hens will fall into a routine and lay at the same time daily.
