Not laying as many

[northener]

Anyone else noticed a decline in eggs? Got a mixed bunch of 11, last week was getting 6-7 a day. This week down to 2 at most 3. Not happy i'm letting my customers down. Dark nights drawing in?

Mine have just started laying, I've got 4 chickens. I've had 5 eggs in 2 days but when hoping to get 4 eggs a day when they get going properly

Mine have started to moult, so not so many eggs here either. They look very sorry things with no tail feathers.

I don't have any leccy on site and i'm not that keen on the idea. Forgot about moult Johny bet thats partly whats up.

Mine have started to slow down this last few days, guess they're getting ready to go into moult, but I'm hoping the new hatches from earlier this year may start to lay by December to see me over the winter months. I'm not happy about lighting the coop, I reckon if they've laid their butts off for the last eight months they deserve a bit of R and R to re-charge their batteries.  :)
