If only I was as lucky as a hen
My kids and I are really excited because our chickens have started laying eggs!
On the downside, they might not lay in the winter unless we turn their lamp on at night, hens need 16-18 hours of light in order for them to lay. And this little fact got me thinking…
Why do I have to ovulate in the winter if chickens get to be exempt? I’d like to not have a cycle when there is not enough sun…
Of course, I don’t think I’d like to lay an egg five days a week either, so I guess there’s a trade off there. 
You make me giggle! Well said! No laying eggs for me. Ouch!
