I really do not want the expense of someone running electricity to my coop from the house, unless I REALLY have to. Are there other lighting options, such as recharable battery lights etc. to keep a 14 hour or so period of light through the winter? Should I just give my chickens a rest, and not use a light to keep egg production up? We are still waiting for our first egg, and it won't be long before the days are getting too short.
Will they produce eggs in the winter anyway, without the artificial light? Thanks for any replies.
