The growth cycle of chickens can vary depending on the breed and purpose of breeding. For example, broiler chickens used for broiler production generally reach slaughter weight around 40-50 days after hatching, while laying hens take longer to reach maturity and start laying eggs.
Generally speaking, broilers grow the fastest among poultry, with a growth cycle of about 6-10 weeks, while laying hens take a longer time to reach maturity. For example, it takes about 20 weeks for common laying hen breeds (such as brown-shell chickens) to hatch and start laying eggs. For some laying hen breeds, this time may be longer.
In short, the growth cycle of chickens will be affected by many factors, including breeding environment, feed quality, genetics, etc. If you are considering raising chickens, be sure to choose a breed that suits your needs and follow proper feeding and management techniques to ensure your chickens' health and growth.
