[QUOTE="angie1, post: 513445, member: 3886"] MoGal ~ you are going to be disappointed with the light brahmas if you are wating them to lay in the cold weather. Give them artificial light. Set timer so that it goes on earlier in the morning than the sun comes up and it shuts off after the sun goes down ~ makes a difference, the light. Ours are laying eggs like crazy. They are on laying mash now, but I will take them off of it next bag. Makes shells too hard, to much calcium and protien in it, and the chicks have difficulty hatching. Had one hen hatch out 18 by herself last year ~ farm record. Raised every last one of them. Her name is Lace. [/QUOTE]
