During the production phase (typically from 18 – 72 weeks of age) layer chickens have specific feed intake needs depending on their age, body weight, environmental conditions, and production level.
Age (weeks): Production phase Typical feed intake
18 – 25 Early lay start of lay 90 – 110 g / bird / day
26 – 50 peak production 110 – 120 g / bird / day
51 – 72 late production 105 – 115 g / bird / day

The maximum amount of feed a laying hen should consume daily during production is generally between 120 and 150 grams per day. This can vary slightly based on breed, age, and egg production levels.
