Hello all,
I'm new to the forum. I have 9 hens (2 Rhode Islands, 2 Dominiques, 2 Leghorns, 2 Americaunas, and a Cochin). I just got my first egg on Monday
and another one today -both brown. I don't know if the shortening days is going to be a problem in getting them all to lay before winter sets in. If I decide to put some light in my coop how much light do they need? I think one of the Americaunas might be starting to molt. Does that mean no eggs until spring?
Arrrrrgh I have so many questions........but I love my hens
;-)
