    What's wrong with my layers?

    All through winter, my 8 egg layers laid 6-8 eggs a day total. These past few days we've gotten 4, 4, and 5 eggs. I'm in wisconsin, so its not like its really hot or anything. Does anybody know why my less than one year old layers slowed down when they would usually be producing like crazy?

    what temperature should I add the 250w light to keep hens warm

    fay-does your solar floodlight have a timer on it so it can turn on a like 4 am or whatever it should be to have 14 hours of daylight?
