From 14 hens(granted the three Welsumer pullets have yet to start laying) we were getting 1-3 eggs a day November to January without additional lights. In the past week we are up to 5-7 eggs a day and one of the Welsumers has started squating now. Since we didn't really need the eggs the light was not a problem and we decided the break was good for the girls. We would rather have them lay longer and be healthy instead of being short-term production machines.
