We're still just getting 2/day! The other 3 girls have decided it's not spring yet (and in their defense, it hasn't been very spring-like in CA)

Mine never stopped laying, but we're in Florida so I assume it just never got dark enough :/ I don't even think they really let up much - a few stopped (mostly the dang celadons) but I still got 8-10 eggs a day.

Ironically I really wanted them to take a break. I've accepted that these are effectively 'production pets' in that they pay egg rent and we're willing to cull and eat birds that don't fit into the group, but I also don't want to shorten their lives from all the egg laying.
