Some hen breeds can produce over 300 eggs per year, with 'the highest authenticated rate of egg laying being 371 eggs in 364 days'[26]". Therefore for an average hen it would be from 250 to 300.

Usually a hen lays up to 10 eggs, but that's depending on the breed. Most breeds lay up to 10 eggs, because most breeds lay 1 egg a day for 10 days.

Hybrid hens will lay about 300 eggs per year. An average chicken lays 260 eggs per year, so that's five a week, on average.
