In the Brooder
Getting ahead of myself for this, I have 1 and 2 week old chicks and I'm a first time chicken owner in MA. I know chickens lay little to no eggs in the winter, but is it "better" to give them the heat and light so they lay throughout the colder months, or to go more natural and let them to have the winter off?
All I'm finding is ways to get more eggs in the winter, but not what's best for the birds.
I wasn't sure if it impacts how many years they produce eggs.
