Old Fashioned On Purpose

78. Why Aren't My Chickens Laying Eggs?


Listen Later

I don’t know about you, but we are in the dead of winter out here in Wyoming.  Inevitably during this time of year, our chickens just don’t produce the same amount of eggs as they normally do.  While the weather is certainly a factor, the are a number of possible reasons why your chicken isn’t producing.  If you’re ready to figure out how light, age, molting, and so much more have the potential to dramatically shift the production you’re getting out of your chickens.  Don’t worry my friends.  I’m not here to just point out problems.  I’m here to offer solutions.  If you’re someone who’s dealt with the frustration of a broody hen, this episode is a must listen.!
