Hello, we have had chickens for about 2.5 years now and never had any egg production issue. Always got almost an egg a day.. 6 eggs a week per bird roughly.. that’s in the summer on Pittsburgh.. winter we still got a couple of eggs a day. Currently only 1 is laying since September 9th when a hawk attacked a hen in the flock. The chickens free range in the day. We have 7 adult chickens in the coop (4x6) with an attatched 4x10 run. Being that they free range and I let them out around 8-9 am I never had an issue with the coop run on the smaller side. I recently added an additional 10x10 run. Still no changes in egg production.. they eat all our scraps and tractor supply pellet feed and seem very healthy… we have a leghorn, silver laced couple comets, iso brown, black astra.. the oldest ones are 3 and the youngest a year. Any help is appreciated thanks
