If a chicken and a half can lay an egg and a half in a day and a half how many hens to lay six eggs in six days?
Since the number of chickens and eggs are the same, you can simplify both to one. Therefore, a chicken can lay an egg every day and a half. 6/1.5=4, therefore it would take four hens.
If a hen and a half lay an egg and a half in a day and a half how many eggs can one hen lay in three days?
The answer is 2 eggs. Solution #1: Let's get some whole numbers. If we double the number of chickens, we get twice the production. So, 3 hens lay 3 eggs in 1.5 days. If we double the days, we double the production again. So, 3 hens lay 6 eggs in 3 days. Now, divide by 3 to get one hen's production: 2 eggs. Solution #2: To get eggs per hen per day: 1.5 eggs / 1.5 hens / 1.5 days. 1.5 / 1.5 = 1; 1 / 1.5 = 2/3. Now, multiply by 3 days: 2/3 x 3 = 2 eggs.
If a hen and half lays an egg and half in a day and a half how many would he lay in day?

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.
How many eggs do four hens lay a day?
Four hens have the potential to lay four eggs but this is not always the case.

There are many reasons why four hens may not even lay one egg in a single day.

If two hens lay two eggs in two days how many eggs will ten hens lay in ten days?
Chickens lay one egg every 28 hours (on average), so to get an average of two eggs per day you would need two hens. However, if you want to be assured of at least two eggs a day, you should probably have three hens. Also, when hens go through a molt and swap out their feathers, they stop laying eggs until their feathers have grown back in.
How many eggs do hens eat per day?
If the hen eats broken or leaking eggs that is OK but if she is breaking open and eating eggs she should be culled from the flock. This behavior can spread to the rest of the flock and cause major problems. Once the hens recognize the eggs as a sourse of food they will continue, leaving you with no eggs and if you breed hens, with no viable stock for the following spring.

How many hens and roosters does one need for a continuous production of 50 fertilized eggs per day?
Brown egg layers average 2 eggs every three days. White leghorns can produce an egg a day. If you have 75 hens for 50 eggs a day, then I would suggest three roosters to handle the fertilization job. And, be aware that you will have months where you get more than 50 eggs a day; production depends on hours of light per day and age of hen. Young layer hens will lay every day in the spring.

How many eggs do hens lay in 1 day? One per day Some hens lay only one egg every other day. As few as 80 pear year, as much as 300+ per year.

My hens will sit the eggs all day but not at night why?
