I've noticed with my almost 3 year old RIR hens that when I up the protein, the eggs become more consistent, even daily again. I was getting anywhere from 0 to 2 eggs a day from the three of them. Now, I am adding 22% turkey grower pellets to the layer mix and getting 2 or 3 eggs a day from them. I just make sure that there is always crushed oyster shell in there so they get the extra calcium, since the turkey pellets are lower than layer mix.
