It has rained non stop for the last two weeks here in West Coast of central FL.
I have 6 laying hens (EE, Black Sex Link, Wyandotte, Jersey Giant, & 2 Marans) and was getting about 4 eggs per day. They have slowed to 1 egg a day and then none for 4 days. Yesterday the EE laid. EE lays Olive eggs and has been the best layer during the long period of rain.

Anyone else experience drop in production during excessive rains? Coop is covered so they are staying dry.

6 Golden Comet pullets on left side (not laying yet) and 6 laying hens on the right. Coop & fence is separated with wire down the middle. Laying hens are 2 years old. Pullets are 18 weeks.
