EVERY ONE OF YOU NEEDS TO WATCH THIS VIDEO - less than 8 minutes.
Has anyone else noticed a reduction in egg laying from their backyard chickens? Not sure how recent this would include, but we raise a heritage breed whose egg-laying always drops off after October, stays low through December but starts to pick up throughout the month of January so much that by the end of the month we used to get a dozen a day. Now we might get 1 egg in two days.
I turned over chicken duties to my 15 year old son two years ago (when he was 13 years) and have thought that the reduction in egg production was because he is not taking his responsibility seriously.
That is until I came across this video on Youtube. Please watch and comment.
