When to hatch?

Quote:
Useful chart. Depending on when they hatch, chickens do not need to moult during their first year.

If you extend the light in the fall, they will lay right through until the following fall, when they will moult for the first time.

They suffer no ill effects, and the second year egg laying is not compromised.

Before anyone comments (as they did last time) that they would hate to be one of my chickens, please remember this .... the first thing chickens will do at any signs of stress, is stop laying
