    Any extra heat during the winter?

    Thank you. Lots of good information there. Now I won't have to buy bulbs constantly. Still not sure why they were going out so fast. I kept having nightmares of my chickens freezing to death. I know, weird. lol

    Chickens have almost completely stopped laying!

    I had this happen to me last month. Turns out that they had started eating them. I go out twice a day now and make sure they know not to.

    Any extra heat during the winter?

    So as it gets more and more chilly, are you supposed to use any additional heating with the chickens. I've been setting up some heating lamps (the kind for baby chicks) and the bulbs go out every two weeks. It's frustrating but I worry about my chickens getting too cold. How much cold can...

    A lot of hens look alike, how would you keep track of which one is laying?

    I have 4 hens that look almost exactly the same. Is there something in particular you would do to keep the different hens distinguishable? They are all free range in a very large coop and run. Will a particular hen always try to lay in the same spot?
