Isnt it getting noticeable darker at night now

 

Am using a torch now to put the girls to bed, as it is pitch black at rear of our house. Hubby is planning to put some kind of lighting up for me.. but wondered if this would affect the girls going to bed when they should or will the lighting keep them up ? thanks xx

If the light is on all the time it will affect them going to bed yes

 

If its a security light or switched on when you need it its likely that they will come out of the coop to see whats going on but they do tend to go straight back to bed once its dark again

Thanks Redwing, I had suspected artificial lighting would do that, so will have one can switch on when going up to check on them. Just something that will give me enough light to see my way up there and do a head count xx
