Hello everyone,
Being relatively new to chickens, this is my first winter with them. I am in the south of England, and have 3 light Sussex and 1 cou cou maran. They started laying early/mid December. We have been getting one egg every day from each, but as of the last few days, we have been getting only half that amount (2 eggs a day.) We are working the next week as part of normal chicken maintenance, and we have reduced the amount of extra snacks (corn, veg), though I do not think it is the snacks at fault. Is it just seasonal? Could it be due to bad weather? Being new to chickens I dont know and was wondering if anyone could help me out. I a bit worried.
