Just alfalfa, corn, bugs, kitchen scraps and this fall I threw a deer carcass in their coop. |

BILL GATES. He is the f'er who has been pushing GMO on animal feed ( and humans ) along with vax'ing herds of animals for covid. Since he took over majority of farm land, feed supplies, etc ...... herds have been dying, chickens not laying, etc etc. |

These are different people saying the same thing. They would change the feed and the chickens would immediately start laying eggs again. I heard a few changing it to goat feed with good results. |

Quoting: Anonymous Coward 4943427 Chickens always slow down in winter, some molt as well which causes their bodies to stop producing eggs in return of producing feathers. My wife and I have much experience in raising and owning chickens through Canadian winters and have perfected a system to keep them producing around 50 to 60% during this time. A definite drop for sure, but not to zero. This winter we have had more hens than any previous winter and we've had many days with zero or 1 egg. Sometimes we'd only get 5 eggs in a week. We are doing everything we've learned to do to keep production up and increasing their feed because of the cold. But something is definitely off. We will be switching our feed this weekend. |

I would assume that the mom chickens (at the hatcheries) are all vaxed with multiple vaxes. That being said, chickens are always laying the worst during the darkest months. (nov/dec) They will, even now (end of Jan), start laying a few more each week, ramping up to Easter.

During the winter due to short days and cold temperatures they always have a non laying period. A heat lamp on a timer in the hen house will produce an environment where you can still have egg. Just a little information with no internet drama. Reasonable Man |

You raise chickens? You have experience in this? Yes, direct real sunlight is better, that's why we aren't at 100%, but ANY light is better. They need a minimum of 10-12 hours of light per day. I love it when someone with ZERO experience in a matter espouses their opinion on something. |
