I have Red Stars, Black Jersey Giants, White Pearl Leghorns, and Rhode Island Reds, Will these hens lay well durning the winter
 
make sure you supplement the light.... I in the winter months the days are typically shorter.. you need the long days to stimulate egg production
 
They will do fine. Add a little light to get them up to 14 hrs a day will help them lay better. There are a lot of threads on winter lighting--both pro and con--in the Egglaying, coop, or management sections.
