My girls are my feathered babies, I luv how they all have their own personalities. I decided to put a light in the hen house, thru the cold weather, and we excluded the Roo from our flock, and to my surprise after a good month or so with NO EGGS, now we are up to aprox. 4 eggs a day :) not bad for a flock of 8 (2bantam, 2RIR,2Brahma,1americauna,1Wyandotte)
