    Florida girls not laying

    I have 5 girls (2moran, 2buffs, 1 easteregger). They had been laying like crazy for the last few months and now they barely lay every other day. I am not sure if it because the weather is getting hotter or if it is a change in food needed. They needed an increase in protein because they were...

    As for the feed I am not positive. I actually have to go to the store and get more today, so I can see. Is there a ratio that is best?

    These are the two in question. They are 12-14wks old. Bigger and more aggressive than the others. Barred rock will challenge you no matter where you are. Buff Orpington is more pushy/curious. All my other girls’ feathers are well organized and plainly hens (rounded) but these two have a mixture...
