We have 6 hens. We were getting 3-4 eggs a day, now we are down to none to one a day. What could cause this. Diet has not changed that much, has been weather cooled off just a little. We mix the food per day with cracked corn, lay pelletts and small amount of bird food for a treat. Any suggestions?
 
I wouldn't mix the feed. They should have layer
pellets for food, everything else is just a treat, in
moderation. Plus, less daylight makes a difference!
 
I am sure your post will get moved,but I wanted to mention light.If I remember right it is around 14 hours a day to stimulate egg production. I finally gave in and put a light in my coop after no eggs for 2 months. Hoping they start up soon.
