Feeding. How much a hen eats depends upon the hen's size, the rate of egg production, temperature in the laying house and the energy level of the feed. In general, about 4 pounds of feed are required to produce a dozen eggs. A Leghorn chicken eats about 1/4 pound of feed per day.olting flock. Molting, or loss of feathers, is a natural occurrence common to all birds regardless of species. As the hen ages, egg quality declines and, at about 18 to 20 months of age, molting occurs and egg production ceases. After a rest period of 4 to 8 weeks, the birds start producing again.
