Did combining all our chicken flocks slow down egg production?

We have been talking about it for some time now and we finally decided to pull the trigger and combine all our chickens into one flock. We debated building one large coop to put them all in and pull it around the farm with the tractor but decided to just use the chickshaws that we already had and save the money. Also, when you have a large coop for all your birds there is a large concentration of manure right under the coop and usually leaves you with bare spot in your pasture. By using our chickshaws it is easy to move them daily within the fencing so we can spread the manure throughout the pasture and we shouldn't end up with any bare spots.
We have also been asked multiple time how many egg laying chickens do we have and we haven’t really been able to give a answer since our chicken math has gone crazy. Today we count them and see how many layers we really have!

I haven't seen your videos from a year ago. I hadn't started watching you at that time. Very informative videos. Enjoyed watching them.

Stress-related loss of egg production doesn't really manifest itself until the 3rd day after the stress. The eggs that are laid the first 2 days after the stress have already been developing and will come out normal.

Surrounded by tall trees, fields like that are a dream come true for hawks and owls. Sheer numbers do sometimes intimidate hawks, but they learn over time how to pick off the vulnerable ones. Hawks are territorial so it won't be all out carnage, but they do teach their young to hunt.

I read somewhere that fermenting their food for a few days will help them digest it and their egg production will double!! Hope to have more updates on our channel, just getting into making KZbin videos we are definitely beginners! Great video!

Great idea putting them all together and just shifting coops daily. The manure below the coops will attract insects which will attract hens and nourish the ground. You have a great crew too. Best to you all.

I love it when the kiddos know how to distinguish the chickens by name 😀 my kids want to start selling eggs here in my town. How much does a dozen of eggs go for in your town? We are in Arizona.
