I regularly feed my hens producers pride layer pellets and scratch mix, I also free range and give table scraps. I also designed my coops for optimal sunlight with south facing windows and for the most part keep up on coop maintenance, aka regularly changing out bedding material. Slight decrease per usual for winter, but for my 19 laying age hens I'm averaging a dozen per day. Aside from daylight hours and temp, if you arent taking care of your girls they won't lay, also no ever talks about how old their hens are. Just like all living things, their production decreases as they age and also all breeds lay at different rates. There's a lot of newbies that have entered into the chicken world since 2020 who are clouding the information pool with misinformation.
