Once chickens reach the point where they start laying eggs (usually about 18 â 20 weeks of age) you can start them on a layer food. We feed our chickens layer pellets or crumble rather than a scratch mix as we find there is less waste with layer pellets.nce chickens reach the point where they start laying eggs (usually about 18 â 20 weeks of age) you can start them on a layer food.

Factor #1 - Breed. Chicken breeds that are generally considered to be layers tend to lay sooner than those considered meat or dual purpose breeds. The hybrid laying breeds start laying as early as 16 weeks. Heritage laying breeds tend to lay about 4 weeks later (20 weeks) and all other breeds will begin laying between 20-32 weeks of age. I have no hard evidence to prove this, but I suspect that the breeds that lay the most eggs each year are also ones that are likely to lay the soonest.
