Commercial hybrids (Shaver Browns, Hyline Browns) are technically ‘light’ breeds, with an adult bodyweight of around 2.5kg.
However, their life expectancy is generally only 3-6 years due to their genes.
How many eggs do hyline chickens lay a per day?
These ladies will lay close to an egg a day for approximately 2 years. They need to eat high protein feed to achieve that, at least 16 percent.
How long does it take for a hyline to start laying eggs?
They are also bred to begin laying at around 20-22 weeks of age, much younger than the 24 weeks plus of a pure breed chicken.
