I have been getting eight eggs one day and 4 the next out of eight chickens. This has been going on for two months. Is this crazy? Are they going to self destruct? One of the eight is my rooster Jeffery, so he can't be contributing to the count. One of the hens is at least five years old. We live in Minnesota, so I assume we will not get many eggs in the winter. I have not set up supplemental lighting as of yet. I do have a red heat lamp on all the time. This winter has been incredibly warm. I have let they outside during the day, almost all winter. Got cold last night, so they are stuck indoors.

Being that it is still early in the morning I can only say I got 11 yesterday. I get from 6 to 11 each day.

Ten so far this morning... but it's chilly (-4) so I think my girls are being a little pokey about things lol

None here. Bantams haven't given me an egg since September. My cochins are now 10 months old, and haven't given me their first one yet.

Now this is my question, is it only the ones who are currently laying or all the hens I have?

Yesterday I had 5/6 from the currently laying hens or 5/8 if you count the ones who are not laying at the moment.
