Hens experience 'henopause,' a stage when they stop laying eggs.
Infact verdict: Mixed (50/100).
The claim that hens go through 'henopause,' a stage when they stop laying eggs, is partially supported by the evidence. The term 'henopause' is used to describe the decline in egg production as hens age, but it does not indicate a complete cessation of egg laying. According to the evidence, hens' egg production decreases significantly after one year and may continue at a reduced rate until they are 5-7 years old. The concept of 'henopause' is more of a gradual decline rather than an abrupt stop, and the term is not universally defined or recognized in scientific literature. Therefore, the claim is somewhat misleading as it oversimplifies the process.
