Thank you! We have a outdoor outlet about 10 feet from the coop so I bought an outdoor extension cord plugged in a timer, stapled some Christmas lights around the top of the coop and some around the outside just for fun. The timer is set to come on at 4:30am going off about 7:30 am (they are let out of the coop at about 7) its getting dark around 5 or 5:30 lately so they go back on at 4:30 and off at 7. I set that up on Thursday last week, so its been about 5 days. No eggs yet. I am down to 3 in my fridge and refuse to buy eggs! LOL Does it take long for it to kick in.
