A lot depends on the type of chicken you have. Most egg or egg/meat types will lay as many as 300-350 eggs the first year. Meat-type birds are more in the 200-250 range. After the first moult, the hens will resume laying, but they are not as prolific. The older the hen, the fewer the number of eggs per year. Many home producers will change out their entire flock each year to get the maximum number of eggs. In my flock, the older birds are usually the best brooders, so I keep my old ones around -- personal preference.
