1 So I asked DDG "how many eggs can a chicken lay in its' lifetime?"

And I got wildly different answers. Baslically a chicken can lay some 500 to 8000 eggs in its' lifetime depending on the breed and care it receive.

8000 eggs seems a bit eccestive to me but thats what one (only one in my short search) article said.

Most articles says between 500 to 900 eggs, depending on breed, etc. etc.. I think it's more realistic.

Anybody wanna says different, I'll meet you at the OK Corral...

2 I've heard 800-1,600 from my farmer friends but, again, that depends on age, breed and environment.

3 I have some chickens. My info is along the lines of Mr Mullah. They also produce more in the summer. Stop for a couple months in winter. I'm presently getting 1 or 2 a day from 7 girls.
