Hey! I am writing in today wondering why my 1yo hens are deciding not to lay. They still lay sometimes, but now we are only getting four a day. We have 14 chickens and used to get nine a day. They are not overcrowded, as they are in the large run all day. I haven’t changed food for a while, they receive the same scratch, and I even added more fun things to the run. So they are not bored or stressed from change. I do, however feed them random things throughout the day in which my family and I eat. Such as beets, apple cores, corn, fruit, etc. I make sure the chickens can eat those before I give it to them, and they receive lots of fruit and highly nutritional food items each day. What can it be? I sell eggs and recently haven't been able to sell. Help!
