I guess he can't afford to keep them if they won't lay. Is there any sickness that might cause this? Weather condition? |

In winter, there is less daylight. If your pal wants winter eggs, he has to add a light to the inside of his coop, on a timer. They need 10-12 hours of TOTAL light per day. They also need to sleep, which they cannot do if you leave the light on all night. You can kill them if you do. And, ffs, let him know they stop laying again when they molt once or twice a year,depending on breed. If he wants eggs during molt, he has to up the protein a lot, so they can grow feathers and eggs at the same time. Soft cat food is a cheap supplement, as are sardines. They love both. Idiots. |

Hey don't attack me - I don't know anything about chickens. He mentioned it to my husband so I wanted to see if anyone here had advice. It looks like this is a common situation and he SHOULD know about this. Maybe he's just sick of taking care of them, I don't know. We'll pass on the info though. |

However, given that the hens haven't been in difficulty for more than a few weeks--you don't mention how long this problem with his chickens has been going on--but there is now mounting evidence that GEOMAGNETIC STORMS (which we've had for the past few weeks causing all kinds of havoc around the world) CAN HAVE adverse effects on the laying behavior of these animals. Geomagnetic conditions world-wide have been unusually severe the past several weeks (you can research this even today KP INDEX was extreme.) I would tell your friend to just wait it out--or if money isn't an issue--look into putting a "grounding" system for the hen house in place. That would involve placing a false floor or some kind of metal lining (aluminum) for the hen house with a grounding wire from the floor to the ground, much like is done in the manufacture of computer chips to avoid static discharge. I'm totally serious about this--and it could save the lives of your little feathered friends. Good luck--let us know how it goes.
