Many young hens wait until early spring to lay their first egg.
If you choose for supplemental light, take into account that It takes about 6 weeks to lay eggs , after you give supplemental light (info from other BYC members) .
If you choose a more natural and healthier life for you're chickens just wait until early spring. Making eggs in winter cost a lot of energy (+ proteins, minerals and vitamins) and chickens who lay all year round are finished earlier. The total number of eggs a hen lays in her life will be the same.
Okay no worries I love them just the same
