My chickens have seased laying. It is really strange because I have about 40(+-) hens. Some of the older hens are going through a moult, so I get that, but the rest, not so much. The others are only about 3mnths old so their eggs are still quite small. They stopped laying before it got really cold. Right now the temps. would freeze anybodies cloka right up:) The feed hasn't changed from when they were producing a dozen a day. My ducks are still producing however.
Any thought oh wise chicken tribe?

Re: NO EGGS
Sat, November 22, 2008 - 10:47 AMMost of my birds have ceased laying too except for one banty hen. Don't know which one but that's okay. One of my aracauna's did lay an egg yesterday so go figure. But I would also say that it is the light and temperatures now. Let them rest, they deserve it.
My ducks only lay in the spring and early summer and they are young. -

The minute something is out of wack, they are done. -
