We use them or give them away to friends and family. Our flock pretty much stops laying once the days get too short.

Do you think that mine are laying so much just because they first started and aren't sure what to expect / haven't been acclimated to the changing seasons? They experienced summer, but were too young to lay

They start laying at about 6 months old, but yes, that first year they will lay eggs regardless of the amount of vitamin D they are producing due to the sunlight. Something to do with being young I guess. They will even out by next year.
