My flock is 2 years old and within the last two weeks the hens have all but stopped laying eggs.
I am in Houston, TX and the lows are 70's and highs are low 90's with 60-70% humidity. SO yes its disgustingly hot already.
I am getting 2 eggs a day from 11 hens!!!!
They were wormed earlier this spring and they dont show any health issues. They are not off on their feed and nothing has changed in their environment.
I know they slow down egg production in the heat but this is ridiculous.
Is there anything I can do to ramp up egg production?
I sell all my eggs to ONE person and I am worried he might find another supplier since the girls arent producing.
ANY suggustions would be greatly appreciated.
