This concerns me too as I read these posts (although I am trying the pepper boost using tabasco sauce). I've read that a hen only is able to produce a certain number of eggs during her lifetime (depending on the breed). I want my hens to lay over a long period of time since they will not be killed once they stop. There is no need to have them lay every day so I intend to use this pepper thing (if it does indeed work) only after they molt.
I will keep this in mind, and only "pepper" them for a few days to a week, just to see how it works.
