Why Hens Stop Laying in Winter: They Need 14 Hours of Light

Hens require 14–16 hours of light daily to lay. Winter days offer only ~10 hours. Commercial operations add artificial light. For backyard flocks, gradually extend light with a timer (e.g., 4 AM–8 PM) to stimulate laying. Dominique hens will resume production with proper photoperiod.

Light, not cold, controls the cycle.
