All though it is summer time and my hens are laying fine, I've been wondering about the best way to deal with the lack of eggs in the winter. This last winter about half way through we put a light on in the coop and our girls started laying again. I was wondering if anyone has noticed any drawbacks to causing the chickens to laying all year. It seems to me that if they were created to take a break in the winter there must be a good reason.
Thanks
