Depending on where you live, I'd say that what you've described is normal behavior for chickens.
I feel your pain. I live in cold country and get little to no eggs after early November, right around holiday baking season when I need them the most...grrrrr.
If you've embarked on this adventure with the idea of getting eggs year round, you may want to reconsider. After all the costs of housing, feed, fencing, medications, litter, incubators, brooders, purchased eggs in the winter and all the friggin' WORK, I figure my eggs are costing me somewhere in the neighborhood of a what a nice new Cadillac would cost...sigh*
That said, I'm in it for 'chicken love' and not the eggs. However, I'm always most thankful when the ungrateful wretches decide to grace me with their oval offspring ;)
