We got some chicks last May a week or two apart. ( A goldstar laying one egg a day is the oldest!) and the non-layers: 2 orps, 2 delawares, 1 speckled sussex ) Our weather changed to cooler and darker around the same time the gold star started laying.... no other chickens have produced although some of their combs and waddles are bright red.
The person at our feed store said the rest may not lay now until spring unless I put a light bulb in their coop to create 15 hours of light a day.... ( we have about 10 now). True?
Thanks
