Yeah, we're in the mountains of AZ. 7000' elevation, and when the sun goes down, it does go fast and the temp goes right along with it! That being said, I actually got 2 eggs today!

The trees put the lights out fast I am sure:)

Two eggs where the best ever!! Ha ha ha!

Of my four layers I'm getting from 2-3 eggs per day. Two of the golden comets lay every day almost. Have three more that will start laying in March. Have any of ya'll ( Yes! I was born in OK) have a Partridge Rock hen?

Nope, have not had a Partridge Rock. Eric may have, he has 41 chickens:)
