[CHICKENS-101] Re: Help! My hens won't lay eggs!

 

Hi Cheryl: As in many problems there are more questions than answers. "Bantam" is a generic term for any small chicken. Some breeds are better for eggs than others. It might help to know what you are feeding them. Hot weather might slow production down a bit but shouldn't stop it altogether. In what part of the world are you located? Local weather conditions are sometimes important when it comes to solutions. Do they have a lite in the coop, long hours of darkness will stop them from laying until spring.

The heat has gone and still no eggs. They are eating the same food and living in the same coop. Please help me get them laying again.
