I use artificial light they get prenty of light... a friend said its cause they converter their food to heat not eggs when its cold. You think that is true ??

Mine definitely lay less during the cold of winter. They molt just as it's starting to get cold, then they usually don't begin laying good again until spring.

It makes sense. Just like @chrissynemetz my chickens decide to molt when the days get short and cold. The difference is my chickens started back laying in January when it’s really at its coldest but the days are getting longer.

Only 7 eggs today. I killed snake #3 at chicken bedtime. 2 very large rat snakes in only 3 days. Who knows how many eggs I’ve lost to these evil nest raiders?!! Someone told me now that they’ve found me it won’t stop. I thought that sounded crazy. It’s not. Do they have a rat snake hangout close by??? Is my coop the happening spot? Got a new broody too! Broke one, another took her place. Killed a snake, another took its place. Ok I’m done venting…
