Chickens can only lay one egg every 24 hours, and they can lay in winter if there is light from 14-16 hours a day (that's when they lay best) but I'm not an expert and I think there is more to it than that.
We more sun in summer, and more dark in winter.
2 hens because 1 hen lays 1 egg a day and 2 hens would lay 12 eggs in 6 days
Every Day the Earth gains more time. It is only about three minutes that are gained each day, after the winter solstice.
well we blink more than 70 times a day
A Second Passes!
Some hens lay 2 eggs a day. I would imagine that it takes more than 24 hours for an egg to develop to laying size.
You can feel the difference more in winter than summer because winter has less sun light than summer
In the northern hemisphere, yes.
well im thinking about 30 hens i may be wrong but this is what i think =]
Hens are chickens and they produce eggs. A hen can produce one egg every 23 to 25 hours. Sometimes, a hen will lay more than one egg per day. This can often confuse the hen raiser.
The day is the period of time when its light. This changes throughout the year, meaning it is light more in the summer than in the winter.
Brown egg layers average 2 eggs every three days. White leghorns can produce an egg a day. If you have 75 hens for 50 eggs a day, then I would suggest three roosters to handle the fertilization job. And, be aware that you will have months where you get more than 50 eggs a day; production depends on hours of light per day and age of hen. Young layer hens will lay every day in the spring.
Summer typically has more daylight hours than winter due to the Earth's tilt and position in its orbit. During the summer solstice, the Northern Hemisphere receives the most daylight hours, while during the winter solstice, the Northern Hemisphere receives the fewest daylight hours.
When a hen goes broody she is ready and willing to sit on a clutch of eggs. She will lay some of her own and in many cases she will roll eggs from other hens under herself. She will stop all other activities for 21 day at this point and will refuse to leave the nest for more than a few minutes each day to eat,drink and defaecate.
North pole, It's tipping away from the sun and is actually dark 24 hours a day.
One hen lays one egg a day, so if you want 1,000 eggs in one day you would need 1,000 hens.
Shadows lengths are less in summer than winter.
