 Hens will only lay, and eggs will only hatch, if some hens or some eggs have been in the coop for more than 24 hours. If you're short on Barley, you can add Hens at 5:30 AM and remove them again at 6:30 AM, to conserve Barley. Other than temperature, the program only checks the coops once per game day.

 The Hens will lay eggs and (speculation the eggs will hatch) at any temperature, but your odds are better when the temperature is between 60 and 100 degrees.
