Many adafruit products have a month/year code silkscreened onto them in a stencil font.
What is this date code thing called?
Do you add it in Eagle?

It's called a date code.
Sometimes you add it explicitly to your silkscreen layer, but sometimes the board house will add it for you as part of their own bookkeeping.

I don't know of one. It's easier to add that kind of thing as a BMP image.
