Quote: I lean more toward the natural way of things when possible. I only hatch replacements when needed, and in the incubator only when I don't have a broody hen. These pullets will lay when nature tells them it's time to lay; I can wait.
My freind there is NOTHING natural in a bird laying 280-330 eggs a yesr! My freind you're preaching to the choir. So give them light!
Benny, you're missing my point entirely. Artificial light to increase egg production is certainly not my idea of "natural"
