morning-

we have 7 hens, 4 varieties, buffs, jersey g, nh red, barred, they were laying about 6 a day. that fell to two a day in 3 or 4 days. the temp average has gone from about 60 a day to about 45 a day. will they naturally slow down? does this slow down go on all winter? also read unless it gets to about 35 or colder should not use a heater. make certain no drafts from north, can leave south facing open for solar effect

any thoughts on this? thanx
