is it usual for some breeds to be more sensitive to amount of daylight would you know?

Yes, some breeds do seem to be more sensitive than others. Or else it's individual hens rather than entire breeds. When I have noticed it, I had a few each of multiple breeds, so it wasn't obvious whether it was an actual breed difference or an individual hen difference.

Yes I do until soft and no othermix ins than water . I put a half cup lentils in 1 and a half cup water and cook until soft you will notice the lentils soak up nearly all the water. That amount feeds my flock on 11 birds. Be sure to put them in a large pot since they expand. I've never fed them raw but I'm sure you could. Be sure not to burn them because it smells really bad, talking from experience. I hope it works for you and happy laying!! One more thing, dont feed them everyday or it'll give your chickens some runny droppings

Red or brown/green lentils?
