Hi all...
I'm fairly new here. I adopted an established flock that was pretty beat up. They were in a small, confined coop and pen and many of the girls (and even the roos) were plucked over pretty well.
I got them in Sept. They laid for a while and then tapered off (due to the daylight shrinking, normal molt and we were still building their coop). I got them a better diet of food, kitchen scraps and treats and they are starting to feather out nicely. They are settling in nicely.
We just added a light to our coop over the weekend. Was wondering how long it will take before we start seeing egg production?
Thanks!
Dawn
