Hi All!
I'm wondering: If I bring my chickens inside every night to sleep does that cause stress? In my country there are many predators that can and do find ways to break into the coops to kill/eat the chickens so I started bringing mine in the house and putting them in the spare room. Then I return them to the outside during the day. Is that causing them to be stressed so that they are not laying eggs? Because I believe they are at least 20 weeks old and they've never laid an egg.
Thanks for the help!
And just so you know, I read the links about laying and behaviors however those links are for chickens that have stopped laying mine has never laid an egg...
