Hello from Richmond Hill, Georgia

[Donna Gerlach]

Hi all, I really enjoy following backyard chicken. I have 22 Buffs, and 2 barred rocks and I adore my chickens.

Welcome to BYC!

You have come to the right place!! Love the Orps and Barred Rocks. Excellent layers and great friendly birds.

So pull up a roost bar and welcome to our flock!

Speaking of Richmond Hill, why and how are there so many chickens living at the Loves truck stop there?

I'm new to this. We have 12 chickens. They were laying about 10 eggs a day
Suddenly, they started laying about 4
I feed them laying pellets and some mealworms, and a little cracked corn
What can I be doing wrong?

In the winter months, my girls slow in their egg production. It's completely normal. You can use a light to fool them into thinking the days are longer and they will start laying again. Good luck.
