Hello all...
This is only the second year I've had layers and the first time I've tried wintering them. Over the summer I built my flock up to about 70 girls and the first couple of weeks after I added the last of them (late summer) I was getting approx. 4.5-5 dz eggs per day.

Please note: ..if you are using the deep litter method you will not want to use DE as it will kill a lot of the bugs that help break down the bedding....perhaps only put it in the nesting areas for control of mites.
