I don't usually try to force my birds to lay but recently was at my wit's end with the Barnevelders so I put 2 patio solar lights that clip to an umbrella on their coop since it is like a dog house on legs. So far it lights them up really well but still no eggs. Waiting........
You know, if you really wanted to make it a redneck lighting system, like the title of your thread... you could use those shotgun shell christmas lights
