I have twi ierhead Florescents in the garage where the chickens reside. Added an orangisg standard bulb to a clamp light and a set of grow light LEDS that are full spectrum.
I ghet 6 to 7 eggs daily.
Here is the thing, the more I learn the less enthoused I am about this as it runs the chickens dry sooner.
Also saw a member post about cutting back their own chickens lighting to get them to Molt.
It is a two-car garage with three doors. One set faces North and get decent light most of the day but indirect. One faces East but is under a carport so, except for maybe ten minutes it is also subdued and, facing WEast under the carport it gets dimmer by Noon and dark earlier.
So, turn off the lights? Leave one set on for a few hours? Not sure of my approach here.
