Hi all,
I am new member looking for help. I have 2 Rhode Island reds that are 1 1/2 years old. they started laying great in October 2022 went through great winter but in July 2023 eggs production dropped off. It was really hot, not sure why else and maybe molting. Egg production has continued to decline through the winter and now early spring and no eggs. Last egg I got was over 2 weeks ago. Hens look healthy, act normal. Free range at least 4 hours every day. Have access to oyster shell. Any advice is appreciated!
