Hello everyone!
I have 14 laying hens (more that are almost ready to lay, but 14 that SHOULD be laying.) I was getting 8-10 eggs per day out of them, I installed a light to make sure they are getting at least 14 hours per day, etc. I am now getting 2-4 eggs per day. The only thing that has changed, (besides the weather), is that I switched their feed because I switched places where I was purchasing it, so it is a different brand. It is still layer pellets, 16% protein. Is it possible or rather probable that the change in feed has stopped their production?
Thanks in advance!!
