Production will probably still slow down a little even with heat lamps, but yes, thisKeep a light on them if you want eggs in the winter. You got to keep thinking long summer days in the winter.

I'm leaving that up to my wife. She will probably decide to let them rest up a bit. Supposedly, rhodes average an egg a day once they get going. We're giving half the flock to my FIL once they get their coop built, but we'll still have too many eggs. I'll pickle the surplus up to eat during deer season.Keep a light on them if you want eggs in the winter. You got to keep thinking long summer days in the winter.

Yeah, I'm more concerned with keeping them from turning into fried chicken in the coop right nowI forget not everyone lives where the air gets so cold it literally hurts bare skin in the winter. Since you live down south and it doesnt get as cold there you might not experience a slowing in egg production. It takes more energy to keep themselves warm up in MN
Yep forgot about that...i let mine roam around the dairy barn day in and out. Good reminderKeep a light on them if you want eggs in the winter. You got to keep thinking long summer days in the winter.
