It depends on the breed of chicken and the individual hen. What kind of hens do you have? At the rate they are laying, it sounds like you probably have some type of high egg yielders like Black or Red Sex Links. If so, mine have laid right through the coldest winter months. Also, some of my standard breeds like Black Australorps and Buff Orpingtons have laid through the cold winter months.Our weather is still glorious sunshine at the moment and our chickens are still laying is this normal as I've read they stop laying from mid September?
